What Does a Complete Home Energy System Include?
A complete home solar system includes Tier 1 rooftop panels, an inverter that converts solar into usable power, mounting and cabling, and a meter to track output. Many Melbourne homes then add a battery to store daytime energy, an EV charger to fuel the car from the roof, and a heat pump hot water unit — so more of the house runs on free solar.
Going solar shouldn't mean juggling three different tradies, chasing rebate forms, and hoping the installer who quoted you is the one who turns up. At Supply Solar, your panels, battery, EV charger and hot water all come from one accountable local team — designed together so they actually work as one system, not four separate jobs bolted on over the years.
That matters more than most homeowners realise. When solar, storage and charging are planned together, the inverter, switchboard and cabling are sized once for everything you'll eventually run. Retrofit each piece separately and you often pay twice for upgrades you could have done in a single visit. Below is exactly what a modern Melbourne home energy setup is made of.
Solar panels & inverter
Tier 1 panels matched to your roof, paired with a quality Sungrow or Fronius inverter that turns sunlight into power your home can use.
Battery storage
Keeps the solar you make by day so you can run the house on it after dark — and keep the lights on during a blackout, with the right setup.
EV charging
A smart home charger that tops up your car from excess rooftop solar instead of the grid — installed by CEC-accredited electricians.
Heat pump hot water
Replaces a thirsty gas or electric tank with an efficient heat pump that costs far less to run — and qualifies for its own rebate.
Everything You Need to Power Your Home
Four connected services, one local team. Start anywhere — most Melbourne homeowners begin with solar, then add a battery, EV charger or heat pump as their needs grow.
Residential Solar
Tier 1 panels and quality inverters, designed around your roof orientation and daily energy use — not a one-size-fits-all package. Sized from 6.6kW for compact homes up to 20kW for large or all-electric households.

- 10kW

Home Battery Storage
Store the solar you generate by day and run your home on it after dark. We install GoodWe ESA, Sigenergy, Sungrow and Alpha ESS, and handle the federal Cheaper Home Batteries rebate paperwork for you.

- Sigenergy

EV Chargers
Charge your car from your own rooftop solar instead of the grid. Our electricians install smart 7kW and 22kW chargers — Zappi, Wallbox and Tesla — safely and tidily, with solar-only charging modes available.

- Wallbox
- Tesla

Heat Pump & Hot Water
Hot water is often a quarter of a home's energy bill. A heat pump uses a fraction of the power of an old electric or gas tank — and attracts a Solar Homes rebate plus Victorian Energy Upgrades discounts.

How Much Can Solar Save a Melbourne Household?
Most Melbourne households offset a large share of their daytime electricity use with solar, and adding a battery lets you keep running on your own power after dark. Your actual saving depends on how much power you use, when you use it, your roof, your system size and your tariff — so we show your projected figure for your specific home in a free quote.
Three things decide how much you save — and all three are in your favour in Melbourne right now.
First, electricity prices keep rising, so every kilowatt-hour you make yourself is worth more each year. Second, Melbourne gets enough sun across the year for a well-designed system to produce strongly — even in winter. Third, the more of your own solar you actually use (rather than export for a small feed-in tariff), the bigger the saving — which is exactly why a battery, EV charger or heat pump multiplies the value of your panels.
The honest answer is that there's no single dollar figure that's true for every home — and any installer who quotes one before seeing your bill is guessing. We'd rather show you real numbers for your roof and your usage, with every rebate already applied, so you can decide with the full picture.

Cut your daytime grid use first
Solar covers the appliances running while the sun's up — fridge, pool pump, aircon, washing — the cheapest power you'll ever buy.
-
A battery captures the evening peak
Store the surplus you'd otherwise export cheaply and use it at night, when grid power is most expensive.

Every rebate, applied up front
We confirm your Solar Homes, federal battery and hot water entitlements and factor them into your quote — no chasing forms.
What Size Solar System Do I Need for My Home?
As a guide: a 6.6kW system suits smaller 1–3 person homes, 10kW suits a typical 3–4 person family, 13kW suits larger high-use homes, and 20kW suits big or all-electric homes. The right size depends on your electricity use, roof space, and whether you're adding a battery or EV charger — which is why we confirm it on site, free.
| System size | Best for | Approx. panels | Avg. output (Melbourne) | Typical household |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6.6kWview system → | Smaller homes, units & low daytime use; a popular entry point | ~16 panels | ~26 kWh / day | 1–3 people |
| 10kWview system → | The everyday family favourite; battery-ready for the evening peak | ~24 panels | ~40 kWh / day | 3–4 people |
| 13kWview system → | High-use homes with pools, ducted heating/cooling or a large roof | ~31 panels | ~52 kWh / day | 4–5 people |
| 20kWview system → | Large or all-electric homes & the home-to-small-business bridge | ~48 panels | ~80 kWh / day | 5+ / all-electric |
Output figures are typical Melbourne averages across the year and vary with roof orientation, shading and season. Systems of 10kW and above often require 3-phase power — we check this during your free assessment.
