Solar and Your NZ Power Company

Power prices in NZ have risen by an average of 5% annually. While exporting solar to the grid pays only 7-12c/kWh, grid rates continue to climb. Solar empowers you to take control of your energy costs.

How Solar Works

1

Solar panels capture sunlight and create DC electricity.

2

An inverter converts the DC electricity to AC for home use.

3

Extra power can charge batteries or be sent back to the grid.

4

You use your solar power first, reducing what you buy from your energy retailer.

Choosing the Right Partner

Look for SEANZ-member installers with strong track records, clear case studies, and compliance with NZ standards. The cheapest quote isn’t always the best. Ask for evidence of previous installs and check Google reviews to ensure you're working with a reputable company.

How Much Can I Save?

Most NZ households save 40–70% off their power bills with solar. The typical payback period is 7–10 years, depending on your energy usage, available rebates, and system size.

Return on Investment (ROI)

A standard solar system in New Zealand typically pays for itself in about 7-8 years. With panels and inverters often lasting 25 years or more, solar is a long-term investment in free power, not just a one-time cost.

What is a Hybrid System?

Hybrid solar systems offer maximum flexibility by combining solar panels, battery storage, and grid backup. They provide protection from rising grid prices and potential blackouts, giving you the best of both worlds.
