Solar Panel Installations in Adelaide
At Renelec Electrical Services we can install solar panels on your home in any suburb in Adelaide. The South Australian Government is always offering rebates in some form or another.
For example, you can currently receive a $3,000 rebate from a 6.6kw system & approximately a $5,000 rebate from a 10kw system.
As these tend to change give us a call to find out what rebates are on offer. We always recommend doing this if the offer is there, if you can get financial assistance with your solar panels why not!

What is included with our solar panel installations in Adelaide
Solar Panels – The main aspect to a system, and where the power is made, taking care of each individual panel is a must, as each panel has its own impact on the performance of the system, therefore, making it important to make each panel 100% and in perfect condition for your system.
The Railing – Each system is held up by a system of railing fixed to the roof with quality fixing to ensure the strength and stability of the system. If the railing isn’t safe, then the panels aren’t, therefore we go over every piece multiple times to ensure quality and peace at mind.
Cables – We only use cables that are up to standard and are 100% safe for your home or business.
Inverters – This is of equal importance to your panels and therefore must be treated with a professional approach and installation.
Isolators – These are essential, in case of future maintenance, the isolator is there to make it safe for the person performing such maintenance on your system.
Solar Battery – This is an investment and critical to install correctly. Self-generated solar power from stored batteries is increasing in popularity. Our experienced electricians will map out a plan of installation including location etc and go over everything with you.
Labour – In most cases your solar installation should only take a day, but it can depend on the size of the job and the number of panels needing to be installed. (possible delays storms – most common)
Benefits of getting solar panels installed on your home
There are numerous environmental benefits of solar panels. Once manufactured, your solar panels will generate clean, renewable energy for your home. The installation of a 6.6kW solar system will reduce greenhouse gas emissions by over 250 tonnes in its lifetime.
Solar panels reduce air pollution, as there are no pollutants associated with the generation of solar power.
Our analysis concludes that solar panels are financially worth it in almost every instance. A 6.6kW solar power system can save you as much as $1,200 – $2,000 per year, and will significantly reduce your electricity bills. Payback periods for solar panel systems can be as low as four years, and are typically not longer than 7 years.
If you buy quality components, your solar panels can deliver savings for 25 years or more. Lifetime savings of solar panels can be greater than $50,000. Our solar savings calculator will help you estimate your financial benefits.
All things being equal, solar panels will add to the value of your home.
Once your solar system is installed, it will likely require very little maintenance. Typically, solar panels do not even need to be cleaned. The inverter may need replacing after 10 – 15 years, but this is the only additional cost you may incur throughout your system’s life.
Frequently asked questions about solar panels
Photovoltaic (PV) solar panels capture the sun’s UV light, converting the energy into a DC electrical current. The energy is being created from light, not heat. We have chosen our panels carefully to ensure they still work on cloudy days. An inverter is installed on the side of the house to convert the D.C. to A.C. allowing you to use the electricity for your pool, fridge, TV or any other electrical appliance.
Solar panels only produce energy during daylight hours and do not store energy so you will benefit most from a solar system if you are able to use power during the day.
Surplus solar electricity from your solar panel is fed back into the grid.
It is possible to store your energy in batteries. This is becoming more and more popular.
As you be somewhat self-sufficient & with electric cars becoming more popular you can charge your car as well.
This all depends on various factors; these include roof size, your electricity bill, your future plans, and your budget.
If you are a single-phase property you are capped at under 5kW system. With 260W panels, this is a 4.94kW system that will produce on average 21kwh per day. If you have 3 phases you can go up to a 12kW system and produce 52kwh per day.
Our consultants will analyse your bill and discuss your day to day running of your home to help you ascertain the right size for your needs.
No, unfortunately not
But if you have a battery installed then yes your power will work if there is a power outage.
You have a 2-way stream going in and out of the grid. So for safety, your solar system will automatically be turned off and reset when the grid power is restored.
Or you can purchase a battery to install on your home – making you selfsufficient.
Your home uses power when you are not there.
Fridges, freezers, swimming pools if the pump is on, charges or any appliances plugged in are drawing power.
You will benefit most from a solar system if you are able to use power during the day.
If you have appliances like washing machines and dishwashers that have timers, then you can program them to work when solar is active and you are not home. Our solar consultants can help you assess this.
