The most popular choice of an installation
amongst solar for home is the standard 6.6kW
solar system. Their affordable, sized, energy
generation, return on investment, and ease of
connectivity makes it an ideal pick for
Australian households. The best part is that you
get your dollars worth in terms of energy
generation. Throw in a decent feed-in tariff,
and you have a greatly rewarding investment.

HOW MUCH AREA IS SUFFICIENT TO
ACCOMMODATE A 6.6kW SYSTEM ?
The area required for one panel is approximately
1.7m2, which means a 6kW system will cover
about 30-36m2 of area. This is subject to change
depending on the roof style and its tilt. If
tilt frames are required, they will take up a
little more space compared to panels mounted
flush on the roof. Your CEC-accredited retailer
will conduct a thorough site inspection and
assessment before recommending a system.

anywhere between 300W to 370W will consist of
17-22 solar panels.

HOW MUCH WILL A 6.6kW
SOLAR SYSTEM COST ?
As of February 2021, a 6.6kW solar system of good
quality, installed properly, came with an
average cost of only 2500 to 3000 much much
more affordable than it was just a couple of
years back. This price is also subject to solar
rebates and subsidies offered by the local
government. Systems with advanced offerings and
benefits would be a little more expensive,
though those with limited offerings could be
purchased at a lower cost.

HOW MUCH ENERGY WILL A
6.6kW SOLAR SYSTEM GENERATE ?
There cannot be a single solid answer to this,
considering its dependence on Location of the
site Orientation and tilt of the panel
array Presence of shade on/around the property
(falling on the panels) Performance of the
panels and the inverter Generally, a 6.6kW solar
system with a 5kW inverter can generate anywhere
from 23.8kW to 27.7kW of energy on a normal day.
It is, by far, the most preferred choice of a
majority of average-sized Australian households.

6.6kW SOLAR SYSTEM
WITH SOLAR BATTERIES ?
If you live in a location where there are
frequent power outages, getting batteries for
your 6.6kW solar system is recommended. However,
if your area is not very prone to power outages
(say, once every month), it is really important
to understand the off-peak and peak power
pricing with your retailer to make the most use
of your battery. The minimum size of batteries
our experts recommend is 5kW to ensure
sumcient storage capacity.

payback period youre looking at is 3-5 years.
