Estimates only, including GST, checked September 2026. STC figures use postcode 2153, 2026 deeming and an assumed $38 per certificate — the discount you receive depends on the certificate market on your installation date. Savings are modelled on typical usage and tariffs and are not a guarantee.
Grid connection
What you can export in Bella Vista
Your distribution network — not your retailer — decides how much solar your Bella Vista property may send back to the grid. The figures below are the residential rules; a commercial connection is assessed on its own terms.
10kW per phase
Flexible exports: eligible customers can export up to 10kW per phase most of the time, with the inverter adjusting automatically when the local network needs it to.
1.5kW
The fixed alternative: choosing a fixed export limit instead caps exports at 1.5kW.
From November 2026
Flexible exports become the default connection option for eligible new and upgraded solar systems.
On a commercial roof, exports are usually beside the point
An office or a medical suite consumes nearly everything it generates, because the load and the sun run to the same clock. That makes the export limit far less interesting than it is on a house — what matters instead is the demand charge on your tariff, and whether the system shaves the peak that sets it. We look at your interval data rather than your annual total, because that is where a commercial case is won or lost.
Network rules change and every connection is approved on its own merits — we confirm the limit that applies to your address in writing before install day.
Business & industrial
Commercial solar in Bella Vista
Norwest is offices, medical suites, showrooms and light industrial rather than distribution sheds, which changes the sums: the load is almost entirely daytime, so very little generation gets exported, but the roof is smaller relative to what sits under it. The systems below are the starting point, and the right size comes from your interval data.

Commercial solar installationBatteries
Adding a battery in Bella Vista
Home batteries attract two separate incentives. The federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program takes an estimated $3,402 off a 13.5 kWh battery, and NSW’s PDRS battery incentive + VPP bonus can add more on top. Already have solar? We check your inverter first — some systems take a battery as they are, others need a hybrid inverter.

Planning an EV?
Size your solar for it now. Our 10kW package comes pre-wired for a battery and an EV charger, so adding one later is a small job rather than a rebuild.
From quote to switch-on
How a Bella Vista install works
- Step 1
Free assessment
We review your roof, shading, switchboard and a recent bill. On a commercial tenancy we also check what you control: the roof may belong to the building, not to your business.
- Step 2
Written quote
A quote with the panel layout, inverter and every extra itemised — no surprises later.
- Step 3
Network approval
We lodge your grid-connection application and confirm any export limit before install day. A commercial connection is assessed individually, so we start it early.
- Step 4
Installation
CEC-accredited electricians install, test and commission the system, then clean up.
- Step 5
Switch-on
Your retailer updates the meter and we set up monitoring so you can see every kWh.
