SOLAR PANELS BRISBANE
Slash your bills with Solar Panels in Brisbane!
When it comes to solar panels Brisbane, and the Sunshine State more broadly, punches well above its weight. In fact, Queensland has the highest percentage of homes with solar compared to all other states in Australia!
Take that NSW! Queensland’s got you licked in the State of Origin and now they’re smashing you in the race to renewables and solar savings. At least you’ll always have your overcrowded beaches.
Now that we’ve got the NSW bashing out of the way, let’s look at why when it comes to solar panels Brisbane has such an advantage.
With so many homes with solar panels in Brisbane already, you are one of the last to be missing out on the benefits of solar.
If you’re thinking about solar Brisbane has fast payback periods with many systems turning a profit in under 3 years. Here’s why:
The Sunshine State sees 261 days of sun a year making it one of Australia’s sunniest capitals, but what really sets it apart is the consistency of that sunlight. Because of its latitude, Brisbane solar panels don’t experience that winter dip in production like a number of other capital cities do.
Getting solar panels in Brisbane means you can start slashing your electricity bills from day one.
If you’re ready for solar panels Brisbane has plenty of legendary installers who can deliver a reliable and affordable solar system.

Calculate the STC rebate for solar systems Brisbane homeowners can access
When installing solar panels Brisbane homeowners are eligible for the Federal Government’s STC solar incentive. For the full explanation on how STCs work click here.
If you install a 6.6kW solar system Brisbane homeowners can expect the following discount off the cost:
As you can see, the number of STCs awarded goes down every year and runs out completely in 2031. This is to incentivise faster adoption of solar panels in Brisbane by delivering a bigger discount to those that buy early. The sooner you install solar panels in Brisbane, the more financial assistance you’ll receive from the Government.
In this example, the number of STCs awarded to a 6.6kW solar system in Brisbane in 2022 is 82 but that number drops to just 9 STCs by 2030.
To calculate how many STCs will be awarded to your solar system in Brisbane, use this formula:

DO I NEED APPROVAL FROM THE COUNCIL TO INSTALL SOLAR PANELS IN BRISBANE?

If you are planning on installing a commercial system at a non-residential property consult a Brisbane solar installer and local council.
