What to check in Toowoomba

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: Storm exposure, wind, and cooler winter mornings make a realistic monthly production estimate useful.

Roof design: Good roof exposure helps, but shade from trees should be checked carefully.

Tariff check: Regional tariff settings can differ from metro assumptions, so compare using your actual retailer plan.

Local quote checklist

  • Ask whether the quote includes wind and mounting assumptions.
  • Review winter and summer output separately.
  • Confirm local after-sales support if using unfamiliar brands.
  • Ask for monthly generation estimates and any regional network assumptions.
