Commercial Solar Systems Gold Coast & Brisbane

The figures in the tables below are based on data from our extensive network of solar installers, many of which specialize solely in commercial-scale solar projects. Solar Choice has been publishing the Solar Panel Price Index for residential solar & commercial-scale solar since 2012 and 2014, respectively. We regularly compile pricing & product and warranty information from our pre-vetted network of over 200 installers to produce the Residential Solar PV Price Index and Commercial Solar Price Index. We update this information monthly to help Australians understand – how much do solar panels cost.
When you install a commercial battery sumner solar PV system, you’re eligible for a certain number of STCs based on the size of your system and the amount of electricity it’s expected to generate over its lifetime. We offer ongoing commercial solar maintenance services include regular system checks, cleaning of solar panels, and inverter and battery maintenance. As a business, we understand the price pressures all businesses face which is why our commercial solar options will always represent value for money. Empower Solar Australia can future-proof your business with more affordable and sustainable, renewable energy.

We offer a comprehensive range of solar services, including system sales, installation, and maintenance. If you’re looking for competitive solar panel quotes or entire solar system quotes, please contact our friendly team today. A 20 kW solar system with a battery is an excellent investment for medium to large homes or small businesses in Brisbane, QLD, requiring a 3-phase power connection. Costing $30,800–$49,000 after the Federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program’s 30% rebate, it generates 81 kWh daily, saving up to $5,452 annually. With 40–46 high-quality 440–510 W panels and batteries like SigEnergy SigenStor or Sungrow SH20RT, it ensures energy independence and backup during outages.
By installing solar panels in Queensland and decreasing your reliance on the electricity your business sources from your Local Network provider, you can protect yourself against imminent electricity price rises. Energy from the Sun is free, and by collecting and using this energy, you will be able to decrease your electricity spend. Many Australian states offer additional incentives for commercial solar installations. Victoria’s Solar for Business Program provides rebates of up to $3,500 for small businesses installing solar systems. Queensland’s Business Energy Savers Program offers free energy audits and co-contributions for implementing energy-saving measures (including solar installations). Our range of solar system installation solutions include packages suitable for small, medium and large family homes, as well as for business premises of varying sizes.
A typical 8kW solar PV system in Queensland will save around 11 tonnes of CO2 emissions annually, equivalent to 65 fewer cars over the system’s 25-year lifetime. Their broker also secured a competitive retail contract that reduced grid rates by 17%, adding another layer of savings. The business claimed 1,468 STCs at $39.80 each, reducing the initial outlay by $58,426.

For all Solar Power Systems with an inverter rated 30kVA or larger there will be an application cost required with SAPN and a minimum requirement to install a Grid Protection Unit (GPU). There may be additional requirements such as export limiting that may arise as part of SAPN’s assessment. As a result, systems with a 39kW DC (solar panel rating) with a 30kVA inverter are very common to streamline the application process and avoid additional costs which don’t provide any benefits to the business.
With the rise of electric vehicles in Australia, there is a growing demand for solar-powered EV charging stations. These stations can help businesses reduce their carbon footprint while providing a valuable service to employees and customers. As solar adoption increases, the need for efficient energy storage becomes more crucial. Battery storage systems are becoming more affordable and efficient, enabling businesses to store excess energy generated during the day for use at night or during peak demand periods. Invest in commercial solar and set your business up for a cost-effective, environmentally friendly future.

Harness the economic advantage of energy arbitrage by storing energy when it's cheapest and using it when prices are  at their peak, optimizing your energy spend. All prices are inclusive of Government STCs, otherwise known as the solar rebate. We also have an online store to provide 12/24V components and electrical fittings to the 4x4, caravan, camping, and marine market. We also stock a large range of 12/24V components and electrical fittings to service our 4x4, caravan, and marine market. We proudly service Brisbane and its surrounding suburbs, including Northern Suburbs, Caboolture, Ipswich, Southside and Western localities, including Toowoomba.
With significant cost savings, environmental benefits, and government incentives, now is the perfect time to explore solar solutions. Customising a solution based on energy consumption patterns, available roof space, and operational requirements ensures optimal performance. As Australia continues its shift towards renewable energy, Queensland is emerging as a leader in solar energy adoption.
This is mainly due to the fact that the cost of solar batteries is comparatively much higher and there in no rebate available for battery storage in Queensland or federally across Australia. The below table illustrates some scenarios of typical Brisbane households where the larger solar panel sizes are matched to larger energy usage. Note that the calculations in the table rely heavily on the ‘self-consumption rate’ which estimates the proportion of solar power that will be used within the home rather than being sold back to the grid. A rate of 40% would suggest a reasonable amount of usage during the daytime.

With Energy Partners solar monitoring, you can track the performance of your solar system, such as energy production and consumption, and stay up to date with instant alerts. Tariffs are a complex system, and if your business is on the wrong rate, it could be costing you much more than it should. At Energy Partners, we’re the commercial tariff experts, so we will guide you to make the right choice. Find out how to apply the Government STC rebate as a ‘discount’ when you purchase your new solar energy.
If you have excess solar power, your solar will automatically sell it back to the grid. Residential or rooftop solar panels are often the same with but only 1700mm tall. The complexity of the installation process can significantly impact the overall price. Factors such as roof structure, height, tilt angle, and material can affect how easily the system can be installed. Additional considerations like crane hire, switchboard upgrades, or the need for ground-mounted systems can increase labour and material expenses.

The right solar system needs to be electrically and structurally engineered for your site. Getting the right certifications for your area is critical for a compliant install. Our team models 12 months of energy data to understand a business' load profile.
