Frequently Asked Questions

We understand

How much can solar actually save me on my power bill?

Your savings depend on your electricity usage, roof, system size and how much solar energy you use during the day. We can assess your home and show you what your potential savings could look like.

How many solar panels do I need?

There isn’t a one-size-fits-all answer. We size your system around your household’s electricity usage, roof space and future energy needs.

Is solar still worth it in Queensland?

Yes. Queensland has excellent solar conditions, making solar a popular way for homeowners to reduce their reliance on grid electricity and protect themselves from rising power costs.

What happens to my solar power if I’m not home during the day?

Without a battery, excess solar can generally be exported to the grid. With a battery, you can store more of your daytime solar and use it later when your household needs it.

Do I need a solar battery?

Not necessarily. A battery can be valuable if you use a lot of electricity in the evening, want to increase your use of your own solar power, or want backup power during outages. We can help determine whether one makes financial sense for your home.

What happens when the sun isn’t shining?

Your home can still draw electricity from the grid. If you have a suitable battery system, stored energy can also be used when solar production is low.

Will solar work during a blackout?

A standard grid-connected solar system normally shuts down during a blackout for safety. A properly configured battery backup system can keep selected circuits running during an outage.

How long do solar panels last?

Quality solar panels are designed to operate for decades, with manufacturers typically providing long-term performance warranties.

How long does a solar installation take?

Most residential installations can be completed relatively quickly within a day, although the exact timeframe depends on the system, property and electrical requirements.

What maintenance does solar need?

Solar systems generally require very little maintenance. Keeping panels reasonably clean and monitoring system performance can help ensure your system continues operating effectively.

Will solar increase the value of my home?

Solar can be an attractive feature for buyers because it may reduce ongoing electricity costs. However, the impact on property value varies from home to home.

How do I know which solar system is right for my home?

That’s where NE Solar comes in. We look at your electricity usage, roof, household requirements and future plans before recommending a system rather than simply selling you the biggest system available.

Hey, I'm Kirt!

I've been working in the solar industry ever since I started my electrical apprenticeship in 2006, Ballarat Victoria. After becoming a qualified electrical contractor I relocated to Gold Coast Queensland (best decision ever) I got certified and accredited in Solar & Solar Battery's at the time I was working under the company name In & Out Electrical Specialists. After focusing solely on Solar for the past 12 years I decided to rebrand and two years ago I launched North East State Solar! I'm proud to be a member of the Northeast State of Australia!
