Energy Usage
How much energy your Sydney - Baulkham Hills and Hawkesbury home uses daily directly impacts the solar system size you'll need. Whilst typical Sydney - Baulkham Hills and Hawkesbury households consume 25 kWh daily, homes with good insulation and modern appliances often use far less energy.
Before installing solar it is often a good investment to first look to reduce your energy consumption where possible. This can be done through improved insulation, and energy efficient appliances.
Typical energy usage per person per day in Sydney - Baulkham Hills and Hawkesbury:
Note: Actual usage varies depending on property size, building efficiency, climate, and appliances.
Solar System Sizing
A 6.6kW solar system would typically cover your average daily electricity consumption. Sizing your system between 9.9kW and 13.2kW accounts for daily and seasonal variations in solar generation.
A 6.6 kW solar installation in Sydney - Baulkham Hills and Hawkesbury typically produces 28.4 kWh per day on average, with seasonal output ranging between 3.41 kWh/kW/day (June) and 4.82 kWh/kW/day (October).
Solar & Energy Savings
Calculate Heat Pump & EV Savings
Electrify your home by replacing gas heating, petrol vehicles, and other fossil fuel appliances with electric alternatives powered by clean solar energy. This delivers significant additional financial savings and substantial carbon emission reductions. Our calculator helps you compare costs and model the financial impact of switching to electric appliances and vehicles.
How Solar Reduces Your Electricity Bills
The calculations below show how your electricity bills change with solar. Your Old Bill of - per month (- annually) is calculated from your total energy consumption multiplied by the grid electricity rate. Your New Bill of - per month (- annually) accounts for solar generation, the percentage you use directly (self-consumption), remaining grid consumption, and feed-in credits for excess energy exported to the grid. This results in monthly savings of - (- annually).
Battery Storage Sydney - Baulkham Hills and Hawkesbury
Solar Battery Sizing
Without battery storage, a 6.6 kW system in Sydney - Baulkham Hills and Hawkesbury achieves approximately 50% energy self-sufficiency, with the remaining 50% supplied by the grid. Adding a 10 kWh battery increases energy independence to approximately 86% annually, reducing grid reliance to 14%.
