Jinko or AIKO panels?
Both are quality panels we install every week. AIKO is our premium all-black option and costs a little more; Jinko is a very good value option. We help you choose on the assessment call.
Why does the solar rebate get smaller each year?
The solar rebate is paid in STCs, and the number of STCs a system creates drops every January as the scheme winds down to 2030. See how solar STCs work.
Can I add a battery later?
Yes. These prices use a battery-ready hybrid inverter, so a GoodWe battery can be added later. See home battery prices by size.
