What to check in Hobart
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: Lower winter sun means conservative generation modelling is essential.
Roof design: North-facing and shade-free roof sections matter more than in sunnier cities.
Tariff check: Compare solar value against heating loads and controlled tariffs.
Local quote checklist
- Ask for a shade analysis before approving panel placement.
- Review whether self-consumption is strong enough to justify the system size.
- Check inverter and mounting suitability for local weather exposure.
- Request monthly generation estimates, not just an annual total.
