On a $450 quarterly bill, that could save roughly $600–800 a year. Wyndham Vale ranks 34th of the 38 Melbourne suburbs we've modelled for solar output, but the spread across Melbourne is only 3%: your roof's direction and shade matter far more than your postcode.

They don't know your roof: shade, pitch and the faces available decide the real number, which is what the site visit checks. Try the roof calculator for your own direction and pitch.
