How much does it cost to install solar panels in Sydney?
The cost to have your solar system installed depends on a number of factors. These factors include the size of your home or business, how much energy you use, whether you’re building from scratch or adding solar to an existing structure, and even which direction your roof faces
A lot of people get sticker shock when they hear what solar systems cost. Maybe that’s because dishonest companies try to upsell you on things like grid connections, batteries and other add-ons that you might not need. At HIA Electrical, we never try to upsell our customers. We treat you with respect from the beginning of the process to the end.
Will a solar panel system cover all of my electricity needs?
A solar panel system is designed to provide most of your electricity needs, but it’s always smart to have a backup plan in case your panels cant keep up. We offer battery storage systems so you can keep the lights on even when there isn’t enough sunlight to power your home or business.
The size of your solar panel system plays a crucial role in determining how much electricity it can generate. A larger system with more panels will produce more energy, increasing the likelihood of covering a greater portion of your electricity needs.
Do I need council approval to install solar panels in NSW?
Council approval is not typically required for residential solar system installations in NSW. Nevertheless, you should always check with your local council to make sure that our work will be accepted. Our team of qualified technicians are experienced and professional, so you won’t have to worry about things like permit issues or time delays. We will treat your home or business with respect, and you’ll be up and running in no time!
The installation of solar panels typically falls under the category of “exempt development” in NSW. Exempt development means that, in many cases, you do not need to obtain a development application (DA) or planning approval from the local council. However, there are certain conditions and limitations that must be met for a solar panel installation to be considered exempt development.

How do I know which size solar system is right for me?
The size of your solar power system depends on several factors including how much electricity you use, where you live and which way your roof faces.

Before the physical installation begins, there are several preparatory steps that need to be completed. These include initial consultations, site assessments, design and engineering, obtaining permits or council approvals (if required), and signing contracts with the solar installer. The duration of these steps can vary depending on factors such as the responsiveness of involved parties and the complexity of the project. It typically takes a few weeks to finalize these pre-installation processes.
What happens on cloudy days?
If you are wondering what happens on cloudy days when the sun is not shining, your solar panels need light for them to work – so if there’s no sunlight, there’s no electricity. Keep in mind that even though it might be a grey day, the sun could still be out and because of this fact the panels will still generate some power. Also, we can supply a battery system so that when the sun isnt out,
we can still use dc power or direct current from the batteries, and an inverter to convert it into ac power, which can then be used for your home or business energy usage. When the sun is out, we often fill the batteries and have excess power, which we then send back to the grid and get the feed in tariffs that we need to pay for times when the sun is low for extended periods.
Solar power, the renewable energy that we can all rely on.
In Australia, there is no shortage of sunlight, yet we are one of the biggest consumers of coal powered electricity. With the financial benefits of tapping into this free energy source, through the solar rebate and feed in tariffs, solar system installation is a no brainer.
