Technical FAQs 4

What are the requirements for a solar system in New Zealand?

The PAS also stresses the importance of professional installation. Solar systems must meet New Zealand’s strict safety standards, and installations must be approved by local electricity distribution companies.

Why do New Zealand homes need battery storage?

In most New Zealand homes, a large proportion of the energy produced by solar panels is sent back to the grid because it's generated when it's not needed, i.e., the middle of the day. However, adding home battery storage to a new or existing solar power system allows you to store your unused energy.

We discuss our clients’ requirements and provide a detailed Energy Management Solution to meet their needs. Solar power systems are a fantastic investment, wherever you are in New Zealand. For a start, your electricity bills will reduce, plus you will be protected from fluctuations in electricity prices.

How many solar panels are installed in New Zealand?

In October 2022, Electricity Authority data showed 43,641 solar systems installed across New Zealand, adding up to 240 MW. This makes up an estimated contribution of under 1% of total electricity consumption. Globally, solar PV uptake has increased significantly over the past decade.
