Solar in the Goulburn Valley and Mitchell Shire

New estates

Newer homes in Wallan usually have modern switchboards with room for solar. The design work is in the layout: estate roofs are often split into several smaller faces, and some estates have design guidelines for anything visible from the street.

Your estimate

    How we worked this out

    We estimate your daily use from your bill and rates (about 30c per kWh and $1.10 a day supply unless you entered your own), then add typical loads for anything you ticked: about 6 kWh a day for an electric car, 4 for a pool pump and 6 for moving off gas.

    Solar output uses Melbourne's yearly average of about 3.5 kWh a day for each kW of panels. How much of it you use directly depends on who's home in the day; the rest charges a battery or is exported at about 4c per kWh.

    This is an indicative yearly average, not a quote. Roof direction, shading, your tariff and how you use power all change the result. An installer confirms every figure once they've seen your roof.

    Next: a few questions about your roof About a minute. Your answers and this estimate go to the installer, so you don't have to explain it all again.
    Step 4: your roof and plans

    Your roof and plans

    A few quick taps so an installer knows what they're looking at. If you're not sure, pick "Not sure" or skip it.

    What are you after?
    When would you like it done?
    What kind of home is it?
    How many storeys? (installers need this for safety gear and access)
    What's the roof made of? (have a look from the street)
    Does anything shade the roof? (trees, a taller house next door, a chimney)
    Roughly when was the home built? (older homes often need switchboard work first)
    What matters most to you? (tick any)
    How are you thinking of paying? (Solar Victoria offers interest-free loans to eligible homes)

    We'll call to book your free site visit, or outside about 100 km of Newport, a free assessment from your bill and roof photos. Your estimate and answers come with your details, so you won't have to explain it all again.
