Take control, reduce your energy bills and live more sustainably with home solar.

There is no better time to take control of your energy needs than now! 

A home solar system is a great way to save money on your energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint. Power your home with electricity generated from the sun, rather than expensive grid electricity. This can cut an average home’s power bill in half.

And the benefits don’t stop there. By installing a solar system, you’re also doing your part to reduce carbon emissions and create a cleaner, healthier planet for future generations.

Grid-tied solar is the most popular home solar system, this usually consists of solar panels, a solar inverter and monitoring all connected to the grid.

How solar works

Hover over the image below for the key features your solar system will have

Solar panels

Solar panels are usually mounted on the roof. Sunlight hits solar cells, where its energy is converted into DC electrical energy.
More info.

Inverter

The inverter converts solar generated DC electricity into AC that can be used in the household. The inverter also monitors your solar system to ensure it performs as its best. More info.

Switchboard

Energy flows through your home's switchboard and is distributed to your appliances accordingly.

Demand

The energy your solar system produces will always be used first. If you produce more than you need, surplus is sold back to the grid automatically.

Energy storage

A solar system can be expanded with a battery. Batteries store surplus energy to be used at night or through power cuts.
More info.

Monitoring

Your solar system can come with on line monitoring software so you can use an app or web to monitor your production and usage in real-time.

Products you can trust

At Dunedin Solar, we only work with trusted suppliers to ensure your solar system is high performing and long-lasting. All products are tried and tested, from industry-leading manufacturers who offer long warranties.

Back up power

Grid-tied solar systems do not give you backup power during an outage unless you have a battery. Click to learn about battery storage.

A battery can be added to any grid-tied solar system at any point. You do not need to buy a special hybrid inverter.

There are plenty of aftermarket systems available, such as the Tesla Powerwall.
