Established homes on sloping, tree-lined blocks and newer houses on smaller lots. We design around the shade and the slope, size the battery for your evenings, and install with our own A-Grade electricians from Somerville, about 30 minutes away.
Beaconsfield sits where Casey's suburbs run into the foothills, and the housing shows it. Around the old township and up the rise toward Beaconsfield Upper there are established homes on larger blocks, many surrounded by mature gums and garden trees. On the newer streets the blocks are smaller and the roofs clearer. A design that works on one side of the suburb can be wrong on the other.
On the treed blocks, shade is the first thing we check. A tall tree to the north or west can take hours off a roof face in winter, so we map which faces stay clear and when, and put panels only where they earn their place. Sometimes that means a smaller array and a bigger battery. Sometimes the east and west faces do more of the work than the north.
The system we have written up here shows the scale Beaconsfield owners are choosing: 11.76kW of all-black Aiko panels on a tin roof and 41.6kWh of GoodWe storage, enough to cover a long evening. Read more about our work around Beaconsfield.
The parts are the same as anywhere. How they are laid out and sized is not.
Jinko and Aiko panels on the faces that stay clear of trees for most of the day. Where some shade cannot be avoided, panels are grouped so one shaded string does not drag the rest down, and we give you an honest estimate of output.
When a roof loses afternoon sun to trees, a bigger battery stores what the morning and midday produce. The Beaconsfield system on this page uses five GoodWe modules for 41.6kWh. Sigenergy, Tesla Powerwall and Sungrow are also available.
Storms and falling branches can take the power out on treed streets. We set up backup circuits for the fridge, lights, internet and a few power points, and switch them over with you at handover.
Older Beaconsfield homes may still have an original board, and on a larger block the best battery position can be some distance from it. We check both and price any upgrade or extra cabling into the same fixed quote.
The full range is on our products page.
Tier-one panels with 25-year performance warranties, laid out for the roof faces you have.
Hybrid and string inverters, chosen so a battery can join the system now or later.
Home batteries sized to the evening peak, with backup circuits set up for outages.
Home chargers wired into the same system and set to charge from your solar first.
The Beaconsfield system, plus one from Berwick next door and one from Emerald up in the hills, where trees were part of the design too.
24 all-black Aiko 490W panels across a tin roof, a single-phase GoodWe inverter and five GoodWe battery modules stacked against the brick. The Solar Victoria rebate and loan on the solar were handled for the owner.
Up in the hills in Emerald, 39 Aiko Neostar panels went across a tin roof under the tree line, feeding a three-phase Sigenergy inverter and six SigenStor modules that carry the home well past dark.
Next door in Berwick, 27 Jinko panels on a single-storey tile and tin roof, with one row tilted west to catch the late afternoon. The battery stands on a new concrete pad beside the existing switchboard, which needed no upgrade.
On a treed block the design visit matters more than usual, so we take our time over it.
What you pay now, what runs on gas, whether you want backup, and roughly where the big trees are.
We look at each roof face against the trees around it, at the switchboard, and at where the battery can go.
A layout showing which faces are used and why, the battery size, and the price after the rebates you qualify for.
Network approval, STCs and any Solar Victoria application are lodged by us before install day.
Fitted by our own crew, with the backup circuits switched over and tested in front of you before we leave.
Our Beaconsfield job used the Solar Victoria rebate and loan on the solar. Whether you can depends on your household and property.
Available to eligible owner-occupiers, on solar panels and inverters only. There has been no Solar Victoria battery rebate or battery loan since both closed in 2025.
The Cheaper Home Batteries discount takes around 30 percent off an approved battery, with no income test. It comes straight off the quote.
Federal certificates that reduce the price of every eligible solar system at the point of sale. We claim them and you see the result on the quote.
We have installed in Beaconsfield and in the suburbs all around it.

If trees make a face not worth covering, we say so and design around it rather than selling panels that will sit in shadow.

Many Beaconsfield homes still heat with gas, and we do that changeover too. See heating and cooling in Beaconsfield.

Often, yes, but it depends on where the trees stand. Trees to the south rarely matter. Trees to the north and west cost the most output in winter. We check each roof face at the site visit and tell you plainly if one is not worth using.
Yes. Steeper pitches and higher roofs need extra access and safety equipment, which we plan for and include in the price.
It was 41.6kWh across five GoodWe modules. That is on the large side and suits a household with a long evening load. Many homes need less, and we size yours from your own usage.
The ones you choose at the quote, usually the fridge, lights, internet, some power points and the garage door. Big loads such as ducted heating are normally left off so the battery lasts longer.
Close to it is best, but on a bigger block it can go elsewhere with a longer cable run, within the rules. We measure the run, include it in the price, and check the board itself at the same time.
No. The system we installed in Beaconsfield runs on a single-phase GoodWe inverter. Three phase helps with very large systems, and we confirm what supply you have at the site visit.
A site visit with a proper shade check, then a written quote with the layout, battery, brands and the after-rebate price. No obligation.
