5kw Solar System
5KW SOLAR SYSTEM DATA AND PRICES

A 5kW solar system is the minimum size that most Australian solar retailers will offer you. It’s an excellent size for the average Aussie home, as it should offset most or all of your electricity usage. This is especially important given how high electricity prices are in Australia. A 5kW system will have around 20 solar panels and around 100 square feet (9.3 square meters) of roof space.

How many panels will you need for the 5kW System?

To find out how many solar panels you need for a 5kW system, you need to know the wattage of the solar panel, the average amount of sunlight your area receives, and the efficiency of the solar panel. The average efficiency of a solar panel is about 15% to 22%. So, if you live in an area that receives 4 hours of direct sunlight per day, you would need about 13 solar panels with 415watts capacity to generate 5kW.

What is the price of a 5kW solar system?

Looking at price statistics for 5,000 watts of power is a smart place to start if you're asking how much solar will cost to install as 5 kW solar systems are close to the typical size for solar panel installations in NSW, Australia. The size of your system, the kind of equipment you select, and the state in which you reside will all affect the cost.
The average price of solar energy in Australia as of October 2022 is $0.756 per watt ($3,780 for a 5-kilowatt installation). In light of this, the cost of a 5 kW solar system after the federal gov. rebate would be $2,700. (not factoring in any additional state rebates or incentives).

How much electricity will a 5kW solar system generate?

The direction and angle of your roof are just two of the numerous variables that affect how much electricity your solar panels generate. The most crucial factor is your location's level of sunshine; for instance, a 5kW system in Darwin, NT generates around 30% more electricity annually than one in Sydney, NSW. Having said that, solar energy is a viable option for anyone outside of the north. The largest factor affecting your solar savings is how much electricity costs where you live.
