Solar panels and batteries in Thornleigh

Solar and batteries for Thornleigh homes

Big gums and bushland edges mean many Thornleigh roofs get shade for part of the day. In a basic system, shade on a few panels can drag down the whole string. A good design checks where the shade falls through the day and, where it matters, uses panel-level electronics or splits the panels across roof faces. We make sure your quote deals with shade properly.

Many homes here date from the 1950s to the 1980s. Older switchboards with ceramic fuses often need upgrading before solar can be connected safely, and your quote should say so up front so it isn't a surprise on the day.

If your roof is heavily shaded, a battery can still be worthwhile without much extra solar, because it can charge from your existing panels and supply the evening peak. We'll tell you honestly if solar isn't a good fit for your roof.
