The Cape Paterson job, house by house

Cape Paterson is Mornington Peninsula coast, 63 km and about 70 minutes from our Somerville depot. The housing runs from 60s fibro beach houses to new builds, and a lot of it is holiday or second homes being updated for full-time living. Solar uptake here is among the highest in Victoria, batteries are the natural next step, and salt air means outdoor units and mounting hardware have to be specified for it.

With no mains gas to remove, the Cape Paterson plan is about generation and storage: a solar array sized for the property, a battery big enough for the evening and for outages, heat pump hot water timed to the solar, and an EV charger where the cars are. Solar Victoria rebates and loans and the federal battery discount all apply, and three-phase supply where it exists opens up larger systems.

Everything on this page is done by Powerband employees, not subcontractors, and quoted as a fixed after-rebate price after a free site inspection. For the full picture of how we stage a house off gas, see home electrification; for Cape Paterson specifics, the fastest answer is a phone call.

What we do in Cape Paterson

Solar, batteries and the rest, for Cape Paterson

High solar uptake means batteries and upgrades lead in Cape Paterson, with heating, hot water and EV following.

Wood heaters and old gas space heaters are common in Cape Paterson, and reverse cycle is the efficient replacement for both: heating in winter, cooling in summer, and it runs on the solar. Ducted where the roof space allows, splits or multi-head where it does not, all ARC-authorised and VEU-discounted.

Heating & Cooling across Melbourne

Plenty of Cape Paterson homes are second homes with the car arriving Friday night, which makes scheduled and solar-aware charging worth setting up properly. Tesla Wall Connector, Sigenergy or Zappi, switchboard checked, salt-rated where it is exposed.

EV Chargers across Melbourne

Cape Paterson has a steady rental market, and we do the two-yearly electrical safety checks Victorian rental providers need, smoke alarm and switchboard compliance, and the heat pump and split system upgrades landlords are asked for. Per-property reports and tenant access handled by us.

The whole experience of working with Powerband has been fantastic. From the get go they were helpful with the design, requirements and answering all the questions we had about the install. We couldn't be happier with choosing them for the job. Special thanks to Bailey and the team for getting the entire installation done in one day it was a huge job so for it to be done and to such a high standard is much appreciated Thanks everyone at Powerband for all you've done

We have just had a Braemer Dominator reverse cycle ducted system installed by the Powerband Electrical team to replace our gas-fired system. We were very happy with the whole process, from the sales/design discussions with Dayle to the installation by the team led by Julian and including Logan and Darren. Using the existing ducting had its challenges but the team overcame them well. Julian set up the AirTouch5 control system & zoning with us and with a sudden cold snap arriving it has proven simple to use to create a comfortable environment. In fact we are already finding it far more effective system than the considerably larger gas unit and a more uniform heat with less draughts. Thanks to the Powerband team. Ken in Glen Waverley

Petris and his electrical team did 2 inverter airconditioner installs as part of our whole solar system install. Great workers, good thinkers who could sort out a couple of small issues in short order and wonderful people to have around our house. Organised and professional. Highly recommend Powerband.

Had the Powerband team electrify out whole house. Updated the heating / cooling with split systems, replace gas cooktop & hot water and put solar on with a 30kw battery. No gas bill, solar is producing more energy than we consume. These days we barely even have the supply charge. As part of it, they put the package together of what we wanted and needed to future proof our house and showed us several options for paying for it, in the end we opted for a 5-year interest free loan. Looking at our numbers, most of the loan will be paid off from the savings from our gas and electricity savings. All the work and upgrades done and barely any out of pocket cost, nice.... The team were great - worked in with timing for the jobs when it worked for us. The boys on site were all great, friendly, polite and professional. Did the job well and packed up (and cleaned up) well. Happy to recommend Powerband to anyone wanting to electrify their house in a cost-effective way.

FAQ

Cape Paterson questions

Anything else, call 0466 355 441.

Is Cape Paterson eligible for Victorian Energy Upgrades discounts?

Yes. Cape Paterson is inside the VEU area, so heat pump hot water, reverse cycle heating and cooling and induction cooktops all attract discounts, with the largest when you are replacing gas. We apply them on the quote.

Is Cape Paterson on mains gas?

Mostly not. Most Cape Paterson properties run on electricity with bottled gas for cooking at most, so electrification here is about solar, battery and heat pumps rather than gas removal. We confirm what your property has at the inspection.

How quickly can you get to Cape Paterson for a quote?

Usually within the week, often sooner. Our depot is in Somerville, about 70 minutes from Cape Paterson.

Do you install batteries in Cape Paterson?

Yes. Sigenergy, Tesla Powerwall and Sungrow, sized to your evening load, with backup circuits configured. Solar Victoria battery rebates and loans and the federal battery discount are applied on the quote.

Which suburbs around Cape Paterson do you cover?

All of them. Wonthaggi, Inverloch and Kilcunda and the rest of the Bass Coast and Phillip Island area, and across Melbourne. See the locations page for the full list.
