When does solar make sense in NZ?

Solar works best if you’re home during the day or have higher power bills. The more power you use while the sun’s out, the more you save. Export credits also help, though rates vary between power companies.

Do I need a battery?

Not always. Most Kiwi homes start grid-tied, which is cheaper upfront. A battery lets you store excess power for evenings or outages, but adds to the cost. Many people add one later once the system is paying back.

What does solar cost in NZ?

A typical 5kW system in New Zealand can cost between $9k–$14k, depending on your roof, system type, and installer. Prices have dropped in recent years, making solar more affordable than many homeowners think.

How long does solar take to pay back?

For many Kiwi households, solar can pay for itself in 6–10 years. Your exact payback depends on how much power you use during the day, the suitability of your roof, and the buy-back rate your power company offers for exported energy.
