  • Hi OP, the why is the 10kW system much more expensive relatively to the 5kW? I assume it's $4000 deposit + $1400 Solar VIC loan?

    • +4

      maybe because its a bigger system? 4.4kw for an extra $1200 upfront, how is this bad?

    • @Jugganautx the way I read it it's 1400 vs 4000. That's why I messaged to clarify..

    • The price for the 10kW system totals $5400, with a $4000 deposit and a $1400 loan included. Sorry for the confusion!

      • Could I add one of these systems with an existing 10kW system on the roof? Assuming space permitting. I have a 5kW feed in limit so it would need to be throttled somehow. Existing inverter is fronius

      • What about without the rebates?

    If only this deal (or similar) could be done in Sydney metro……..

    "Hurry, this offer won't last forever! Terms & conditions apply, so let's brighten the future together."

    I'll take my chances.

    Once had some clown come out to quote up a solar installation and he said not to tell anyone about the amazing deal he can give us. He quoted some ridiculous amount and we could only wonder how delusional some of these marketing muppets are.

    • Could you tell us what the amazing deal was?

      • Deal surely included a set of steak knives?

    • I understand your skepticism, and I'm sorry to hear about your previous experience. At Marshall Energy, we believe in providing genuine value to our customers. Our offers are always upfront and come with clear terms and conditions. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out. We're here to help!

      Same here in Sydney. The solar crowd gave me a quote of $10500 (after rebates) for a 9.2 kW system, whch would save $2000 per year.
      I'm thinking about it…….

      • I got quoted 6k for 10.3kw (or so) in Sydney

        • +1

          Any chance of sharing who it was?

      • Too cheap..Probably shit panels and inverter

  • +2

    Did anyone take up this offer last time it was posted and can provide some real world feedback?

    I'm interested in getting a 10kW system but want to know the total cost, not upfront :)

    • Yeah note the subtle mention of the loan as part of this package.

    • So, I decided to take the plunge into solar energy and went with Marshall's 6.6kw setup back in December. Gotta say, it's been smooth sailing ever since. Their customer service was top-notch, the installation crew was on point, and they were quick to answer any questions I had along the way.

      Andy walked me through everything, was super knowledgeable and made sure I understood all the specs, even the dude who did the post-installation check said the install was extremely good.

      Long story short, if you're thinking about going solar, I'd definitely recommend giving Marshall a shout. They know their stuff, and they make the whole process a breeze.

      • +6

        Does he work for them, who exactly is this guy?

        • +11

          Yes he works for them. He prepared this account back in 2018 to give this review so he didn't seem suss

          • +5

            @SpendLess: Even went back in time and planted comments on old posts about solar.

      • +6

        We should not assume this person is an associate without any evidence. He may be just a happy customer very keen to help out fellow OzBargainers after MrGareth asked for feedback.

  • +9

    "Top of the line" and "Goodwe"… maybe the top of Goodwe's line!

    Trina panels and Goodwe inverters are low-end chinese-made parts. Make sure you get a few quotes and consider better quality components as a comparison.

      No issues whatsoever with my goodwe inverter after 2 years

      • +2

        A sample size of 1 doesn't really help. I'm sure some people had 1998 Hyundai Excels that didn't fall apart but that doesn't mean that generally they weren't hopeless.

        • +3

          Had one for two years too. Just increased your sample size

        • +5

          I literally own both a 98 Hyundai and a Goodwe inverter and they’re both going strong.

        • +2

          Those cars were rock solid man. Have had two mechanics sing their praises too.

          • +1

            @DirtyBoots: Yeah they even have their own rally series — which definitely wouldn't exist if they fell apart easily.

        • +1

          that doesn't mean that generally they weren't hopeless.

          It doesn't mean that they are either… do you see how that works?

          I also have Trina panels and they done everything I expect from a solar panel. They sit on my roof and generate electricity. So the sample size has now tripled.
          Out of interest, what do you think they should be doing that they aren't to quality for 'high end'?

        • We have had a Goodwe inverter for nearly 4 years and still going strong. Never had any issues.

    • Thank you for sharing your perspective! We understand the importance of quality components in solar installations. Trina panels & Goodwe inverters are indeed popular choices, we do offer a range of options to suit different preferences and budgets. If you like to explore alternative options, please feel free to reach out

    • +8

      I don't think you know your solar products to be honest.

      Trina Vertex are not low end. They are mid range/upper mid range and are excellent for the price.

      Goodwe are solid, but are in the budget arena. Also backed by General Electric. Widely considered a solid cheaper inverter. Also not low end. There's seriously a number of other veery low end brands that I see others trying to peddle, such as Solis.

      That Solar Quotes page also clearly says that the brands on their graphs are considered reputable - and they are. The graph also hasn't been updated for a few years. Trina's are better than entry level now. Finn has been using the same graphic for years and it's time it was updated a bit.

      For my roof, I put the 440w Trina Vertex but with Enphase Microinverters. Cost a lot, but I'm very happy.

      • I found the same thing after using the page to

        From the research I did it seems like Trina is about on par with Jinko.

        Both seem to be the volume Australian imports of 2023/2024 value midrange panels, and were offered by many of the companies in Sydney when I was searching last year

      • how much did yours cost? looking to use microinverters

        • $14900, 27 X 440w panels with IQ8 micros.

    • +1

      Trina are not low-end, they are middle of the pack. There is not much variance amongst solar panels, the specs and the quality is pretty much similiar for the mid range panels. It is not worth spending on higher end panels when mid range models deliver 90% of the spec at a lower price.

      Best to spend the bulk of your funds on a good installer and a good inverter like a Fronius.

    • Nonharm in getting second opinion. So requested some quotes and will compare with Marshall's.

    • @sheikyerbouti what hardware are you expecting at this price ?

      If you want high end components, then you're certainly not going to get them at this price 🤷🏼‍♂️ I think this particular combination of gear is well priced.

      • +2

        That’s my point. Price should not be the key factor. Quality components should be.

        I’m a firefighter. I go to fires in domestic solar systems. I only buy European made inverters.

    • Show me non chinese made solar equipment. They are the industry leaders.

    • Don't listen to this fool. Trinia panels are the mid range option used all over Australia https://www.solarquotes.com.au/blog/best-solar-panels-2024/

      Yes there are better panels. LG are the best but holy moley you will pay for it.

    Just had a 13.2kW system installed yesterday on a 2 storey house by Marshall from the previous OzB post deal.
    Good communication/information from Andy, has been happy to answer questions re: equipment options and installation.
    No high pressure sales tactics when I talked to him.
    Neat install by the subcontractors, no exposed conduit on the roof, all runs through the roof space.
    Panels look very neatly aligned on the roof etc. when I had a look with the drone

    Obviously haven't had the mandatory inspection yet post install, and there hasn't been any rain yet to comment on any roof tile damage etc, but very happy with the install so far.

    Will update this post if anything changes.

    • +1

      Thank you for your feedback! It's been a pleasure assisting you with your system, and we're delighted to receive such positive feedback :) We'd appreciate it if you could share your drone images with us. Please send them to [email protected].

      The inspection is scheduled for next week.

      Have a great weekend :)

    • What was the price if you don't mind me asking. I have a double as well.

      • The cost for a double storey is $500 more. Please share your details at [email protected] to receive a detailed proposal.

    Looking for Solar in Tasmania, north west. any leads please?

    • Honestly, DMS engery. You've also got Genr8 and that's probably about all I'd go with. You are going to pay a very pretty penny for solar in Tas thanks to the Tassie tax. They'll tell you it's expensive getting things across the pond, and it is, but end of the day there is limited competition. We got solar from DMS and very happy with it but paid nowhere near any of the prices listed here. However, we did get LG panels with Solar Edge DC optimisers, which I know is expensive.

      • what price if I may ask?

        • +1

          $14,920 or something back in 2020. 8.64kw system. North, West and East facing, so we had to go DC optimisers. We got quotes from other places and cheapest was around $7k but no optimisers (Trina panels), just two strings and performance would have been terrible because of the way our house is designed. If you are in NW check out DMS or Genr8. Happy to answer any questions by PM.

  • Western Australia deals pls?

    Is the 10KW deal including the same inverter and panel (Goodwe and Trina) brands?

    • +1

      Yes, 10kw system includes Trina panels and GoodWe inverter

  • Any deals for 13kw?

    • Yes! We apply a $1500 discount on the 13.2kw system. Please send me the details at [email protected], I will send you a detailed proposal.

  • When the 10kw promotion will be available? I am very interested getting one as I am building atm

    • The 10kw system offer is available now! Please check the description above.

  • +2

    Any offer for qld?

    • Yes I’d be keen to know if these offers are available in QLD?

  • Are these rebates all income tested OP?

    “STC Rebate, Solar Victoria Rebate ($1400), and Solar Victoria Interest-Free Loan ($1400).”

    • Certainly! To qualify for the rebate, the household income must be below $210,000.

      • Thanks OP! What’s the total cost of a system like this if we are not eligible for any of the above rebates?

        • Same question here

        • If you don't meet the eligibility criteria for the rebate, then the total cost of the system would be $6800, specifically for single-storey and single-phase meter connection.

          • @AndySolar: So to confirm, total cost is $4000 more if you have a household income above $210,000?

            • @sena86: No, there was also an interest free loan payable on top of that $2800, making it quite misleading.

      • Do you know if household income includes super as well?

        • +1

          Excludes super. Only taxable income as per last tax return you and others in your household lodged.

  • How much extra would including consumption monitoring be?

    • +1

      Consumption monitoring will cost you an additional $400

      • What sort of consumption monitor? Can you share more info?

  • Asking for a friend whose income last year was artificially inflated due to renting out their house, but back to normal now and under the threshold. Do they need to wait until they have a tax return to show the reduced income to be able to get the gov rebate?

    • A friend ;p

    • +1

      SolarVIC requires a Tax Notice of Assessment from one of the past two years to assess income criteria.

      • Thanks For clarifying

    • Pretty sure when I did mine I could use the income from either of the last 2 years. Might be able to use year before or show this year will fall under.

      *Beat me too it with more confident answer above, lol

  • Hi, is it possible to bundle a 10kwh battery with this deal?
    How much would that cost?

    • When installing the battery, several factors need consideration. Please email me the address and a picture of the switchboard showing the location to [email protected], and I will respond with a detailed proposal.

  • Can you replace a 5kw inverter and add more panels to an already existing 6.6kw system? Price?

    • It depends on what panels you've installed before! Can you send me the existing system details?

  • 13.3 kw system price

    • For a single-story installation, the total cost is $7,400. However, you can apply for a SolarVIC loan of $1,400 which will bring your initial out-of-pocket expenses down to $6,000. If you're interested, please send me your details via email, and I will provide you with a detailed proposal.

  • Hello, just wondering whether it’s possible to upgrade from an existing 6.6kw system to a 10kw? Already have a battery installed too.

    • I need the details of the panels installed with the existing 6.6kw.

  • i don't know why people still buy 6kw systems with the feed in tarifs you need at least 13kw

    • +2

      Probably lacking the roof space.

      • +1

        oh yeah doh, true that

    • No one buys solar for the FiTs anymore

      • no one buys batteries atm it makes no sense. best to by a hybrid ready system. when the government has a battery rebate.

    • Where do you live ? AusNet has a feed in limit of 5KW - so a 13KW system would be utterly pointless unless you have a way of using the spare 8KW that would otherwise go to waste during the day.

      A 6KW system is perfectly sized for the 5KW feed in limit in the AusNet area.

      • so how it works, 13kw gets you closer to 10kw all the time FIT with Origin at unlimited 8cents, you only paying for evening if you don't have battery.

        • In a large chunk of Melbourne you can only feed in 5KW maximum.

          Not 10KW.

          If you are generating 13KW, then 8KW is going to waste. If you are generating 10KW then 5KW is going to waste.

          • @Nom: A 13 kW solar power system is best suited for someone with high daily energy consumption. The system includes a 10 kW inverter, and during summer, you may generate a maximum of 10 kW of power. However, during winters, the output may be lower depending on the amount of sunlight available.
