Home Solar System

There are so many providers of residential solar in Australia with varying degrees of quality, service and knowledge. This has almost become a race to the bottom for many providers with the result that many will not be in business when you need them most
Some of the largest suppliers of residential solar are simply reincarnations of companies that wound up their previous solar businesses for various reasons and started again. One can draw one’s own conclusions about this.

Off Grid Solar

We advocate to anyone thinking about installing a home solar system to think of the future, think what might change in your lifestyle that will affect the amount of electricity you intend to use and then understand how this can be mitigated.

Stand Alone Solar System kits

Battery storage will become an increasingly important consideration as technology and lifestyle changes and you need to install a solar system that can eventually communicate with batteries.
For a solar system to talk to batteries you would normally need two inverters or controllers.

There are four ways in which this can happen in a standard AC (grid connected home):

1. To a standards string inverter add a battery that has an inbuilt inverter or controller. Currently only the Tesla can do this.
2. Install a hybrid inverter that effectively has two inverters (one inverter and a coupler) built into it. These will talk to almost any battery
3. Install an island inverter to a standard string inverter. There are compatibility issues with this.
​
4. Install a “closed system” appliance that requires additional dedicated solar panels and a battery built into the appliance but only works with the appliance.
The problem for most people who have installed a standard string inverter is, that when it comes to adding battery storage and creating a hybrid solar system they must either choose a Tesla, add an island inverter (expensive) or change their inverter (expensive). And, if they choose the Tesla option then it is unlikely they are generating enough surplus electricity to top up the battery given the entry level Tesla has a large capacity (but only works on single phase).
​
So, buying a standard string solar system at the cheapest price possible simply creates a future problem.
We see so many new homes built with a home solar system installed that is so inadequate that it is next to useless and expensive to upgrade.

But, for the customer who wishes to have an off grid solar system the choices are easier to make as there is no third party imposing restrictions on the size, type or configuration of your stand alone solar system.

No Grid Solar is a specialist designer, supplier and installer of off grid solar systems and our pricing is so competitive we guarantee you will not be able to buy an equivalent system cheaper, anywhere in Australia.

However, you need to know a few simple facts about off grid solar first:

1. To qualify for STCs you must use CEC approved panels and inverters and have the system installed by a registered electrician. You DO NOT need to have the battery storage system CEC approved.
2. Very few suppliers can design a truly robust 3 phase stand alone solar system.
3. If you want to self install you must use a 24V configuration and you will not be able to claim STCs. And, depending upon the supplier you may not qualify for warranties. No Grid Solar offers a full design service for the DIY off grid solar installer together with warranties on all products supplied.
4. Ensure the off grid solar system design can work with a back up generator. This design element is critical.
