How much does solar cost in Tasmania?
Prices vary by system size and installation complexity. These are typical ranges for Tasmanian homes after federal STC rebates are applied. Your fixed-price quote will show exactly what you pay.
6.6kW system
Suits 1 to 2 bedroom homes or low-usage households. Covers typical daytime usage with excess exported to grid.
10kW system
The most commonly installed size for Tasmanian family homes. Covers most daytime usage and generates strong export credits.
Solar + battery
10kW solar plus a 10 to 15kWh battery. Use solar power day and night, reduce grid dependence to near zero.
EV charger
Charge your EV from solar during the day. Best installed at the same time as your solar system to reduce labour costs.
All prices shown are estimates after federal STC rebates. Actual pricing depends on your roof, system size, panel brand, and site complexity. Your quote will show exact pricing for your specific property. There is no obligation to proceed.
Why go solar in Tasmania?
Tasmania has rising electricity prices and solid solar irradiance year-round. Here is what makes solar a strong investment for Tasmanian homes.
Rising electricity costs
Tasmanian electricity prices have increased significantly in recent years and are expected to continue rising. Solar offsets your daytime usage and locks in free energy for 25 years.
Strong solar resource
Tasmania receives more solar radiation than most people expect. Modern high-efficiency panels perform well even on overcast days, making solar viable across the whole state including southern areas.
Feed-in tariff credits
Export excess solar energy back to the Aurora Energy grid and earn feed-in tariff credits on your electricity bill. Larger systems on north-facing roofs generate the most excess to export.
Battery storage
Add a battery to store solar energy generated during the day and use it in the evening. Reduces your grid electricity use to near zero and provides backup during outages.
Free EV charging
Charge your electric vehicle from solar during the day for essentially free. A home EV charger installed alongside solar is one of the highest-return upgrades available to Tasmanian households.
25-year warranty
Quality solar panels carry a 25-year performance warranty. With typical payback periods of 3 to 6 years, that leaves 20 years of essentially free electricity generation.
Common questions about solar in Tasmania
What Tasmanian homeowners ask before getting a quote.
After the federal STC rebate, a typical 6.6kW system costs $7,000 to $10,000 and a 10kW system costs $10,000 to $15,000. Solar plus battery systems start from $13,000 to $20,000. An EV charger adds $1,200 to $2,500 installed. These are estimates. Your fixed-price quote will show exactly what you pay at your specific property with your specific system size.
The main rebate is the federal Small-scale Technology Certificate (STC) scheme. This provides an upfront discount automatically deducted from your installation cost by the installer. The discount is calculated based on your system size and Tasmania's solar zone. For a 10kW system in Tasmania, this typically reduces the upfront cost by $3,000 to $5,000. There are also periodic state-level incentives — your installer will advise on anything currently available.
Yes. Launceston and northern Tasmania receive strong solar irradiance, often better than southern areas due to fewer overcast days. Modern high-efficiency panels perform well across all of Tasmania. Our installer covers Launceston, the Tamar Valley, and all surrounding areas including rural properties in the north.
After accepting your quote, most installations are completed within 2 to 4 weeks depending on grid connection approvals and scheduling. The installation itself typically takes one day for a standard residential system. Your installer will give you a specific timeline when they call.
Most roofs are suitable. North-facing roofs at 15 to 30 degree pitch get the best results, but east and west-facing installations still perform well. Your installer will assess your roof during the quoting process and advise on the best panel positioning and any shading considerations. There is no cost for this assessment.
A battery stores excess solar generated during the day so you can use it at night, reducing your grid electricity use significantly. It makes the most financial sense if you have high evening energy usage or want backup power during outages. Your installer will model your usage against solar generation and give you an honest recommendation on whether a battery makes financial sense for your household.
