What to check in Adelaide
Use these points before comparing quotes.
Rebate context: Federal solar STCs usually reduce the quoted solar price. No broad current state rebate is included here; check local, council, retailer, and VPP offers before signing.
Climate risk: Extreme heat can affect inverter performance, so equipment placement matters.
Roof design: Battery-ready design can be useful where evening energy costs are high.
Tariff check: High feed-in offers can be paired with higher usage rates, so compare the full plan.
Local quote checklist
- Ask how the system behaves during high-price evening periods.
- Review VPP terms carefully before joining.
- Check installer after-sales support for battery systems.
- Compare solar-only and solar-plus-battery payback separately.
