A considerable number of households in Australia are turning to more financially and environmentally sustainable energy sources like solar. Not just homes but also entire businesses are quickly going solar. If you have ever considered switching to solar, too, you know just how overwhelming everything can get. Which solar panels to get? Which brand to purchase? Which retailer and installer to go with? Which size of the solar system to buy for your household energy requirement? It can get a little too much to take at once. That is what we strive to address in this post – which size of the solar system to consider for your household?

The most popular choice of an installation amongst solar for home is the standard 6.6kW solar system. Their a�ordable, sized, energy generation, return on investment, and ease of connectivity makes it an ideal pick for Australian households. The best part is that you get your dollars’ worth in terms of energy generation. Throw in a decent feed-in tari�, and you have a greatly rewarding investment.

The area required for one panel is approximately 1.7m2, which means a 6kW system will cover about 30-36m2 of area. This is subject to change depending on the roof style and its tilt. If tilt frames are required, they will take up a little more space compared to panels mounted flush on the roof. Your CEC-accredited retailer will conduct a thorough site inspection and assessment before recommending a system.

As of February 2021, a 6.6kW solar system of good quality, installed properly, came with an average cost of only $2500 to $3000 – much much more a�ordable than it was just a couple of years back. This price is also subject to solar rebates and subsidies o�ered by the local government. Systems with advanced o�erings and benefits would be a little more expensive, though those with limited o�erings could be purchased at a lowercost.

If you live in a location where there are frequent power outages, getting batteries for your 6.6kW solar system is recommended. However, if your area is not very prone to power outages (say, once every month), it is really important to understand the o�-peak and peak power pricing with your retailer to make the most use of your battery. The minimum size of batteries our experts recommend is 5kW – to ensure su�cient storage capacity.
