Worth asking about in Moreton Bay
- On the Redcliffe Peninsula, Bribie Island or the bayside? Ask whether the panels, inverter and mounting are suitable for salt air, and check the manufacturer's warranty conditions for coastal sites.
- Building in North Lakes, Mango Hill, Griffin or a new estate around Caboolture and Morayfield? Ask your builder what's included, and plan the switchboard and inverter so a battery can be added later.
- On acreage around Dayboro, Mount Mee, Woodford or Wamuran? Some rural properties are supplied by a single-wire earth return (SWER) line. Energex's basic connection limits exports on SWER lines to 2 kW in total, so ask the installer to check how your property is supplied before sizing the system.
- In a townhouse or unit? Check with your body corporate first. A Queensland Government factsheet explains the limited reasons a body corporate can refuse solar on common property.
- All electrical work must be done by a licensed electrician. Ask for the installer's licence and accreditation details with the quote.

How many homes in Moreton Bay have solar?

Is there a solar rebate in Moreton Bay?
Not from the Queensland Government for owner-occupiers. The federal certificate discount (STCs) applies, and your installer normally takes it off the quoted price. Landlords may be eligible for Supercharged Solar for Renters.
Which suburbs does the Moreton Bay page cover?
The whole City of Moreton Bay, including Redcliffe, Scarborough and Kippa-Ring, North Lakes and Mango Hill, Strathpine and Albany Creek, Burpengary, Morayfield and Caboolture, Bribie Island, and the rural west around Samford, Dayboro and Woodford. The full list of suburbs and postcodes is below.
Can I get off-grid solar in Moreton Bay?
Yes, on properties where a grid connection is far away or expensive. An off-grid system needs a battery and usually a backup generator, and it's sized to cover your use on cloudy days, so it costs more than grid-connected solar. Say you want off-grid when you request quotes, as not every installer designs them.
