I have 3 phase electricity and am told a 6.5kw system gets the max govt rebate and have also been told that all the above systems can be connected to a Battery storage in the future.
I need your advice please. Divyesh DShah
Option 1 with SOFAR and Leapton are quite unknown brands to us, I would suggest sticking to brands on our best solar inverter and best solar panel lists.
Fronius and Trina for $5590 looks like a great option. Have you done any research about the company, Energie Group? Most important is that the company you go with are reputable and get good reviews.
The Infinite Energy options seem to be offering single phase inverters. You should probably get a 3 phase inverter if you have 3 phase power.
We are in Banksia Grove, WA 6031. Energie group has their HO in WA as per their website but not many reviews are available.
Infinite energy has good and bad reviews and was surprised when they said they would not need to come visit and they sent a quote for a single phase.
We have received so many calls and we are not sure which company to trust.
Secondly, I think it’s worth reaching out to a reputable solar installer in your area. I listed a few in our Solar Installers Perth page which get good reviews. Solaire Connect in Joondalup gets good reviews, they sell Fronius and REC which is a good combo.
