Going solar in Biggera Waters
The central Gold Coast takes in the high-rise strip from Broadbeach to Main Beach, the canal homes of Bundall, Benowa and Isle of Capri, and family suburbs like Ashmore, Nerang and Carrara.
Over half of Gold Coast houses already have rooftop solar, so a lot of our work here is batteries, upgrades and fixing tired systems, alongside new installs in growth areas like Coomera, Pimpama and Ormeau.
Biggera Waters is on the Energex network. Most homes can export up to 5kW per phase on a standard connection, and newer dynamic connections allow more. We size your inverter to get the most from those limits and lodge the Energex application for you.
- Being close to the water, Biggera Waters gets salt-laden sea breezes. We use corrosion-resistant racking, stainless fixings and panels and inverters rated for coastal sites, and we design to the local wind loading.

Biggera Waters: history and local area
The name is said to come from Bigera, the Yugambeh word for the red ironbark tree. Land here was offered for sale in 1883, and a school reserve was set aside on Biggera Creek in 1889. Work started on an aerodrome in 1937, only for the war to halt it, and part of the land was sold in 1953. A bridge at the creek mouth in 1960 opened the northern side to housing, and the state school followed in 1970.
Biggera Creek runs east through the suburb into the Broadwater, meeting it at a headland called Lands End, and across the water lie Wave Break Island, The Spit and South Stradbroke Island. Harbour Town, the factory outlet centre on Brisbane Road, stands on the old Southport drive-in site. Around 27 parks and reserves dot the area, including Perry Park and Kayak Park.
Low-lying homes near the creek mouth and Broadwater should keep batteries and inverters raised and sheltered, and coastal-grade fixings are worth the small extra cost given how close the salt water is.
