Going solar in Currumbin
The southern Gold Coast stretches from Coolangatta and the beaches of Palm Beach and Burleigh back to Robina, Mudgeeraba and the valleys of Currumbin and Tallebudgera, with everything from beachfront units to acreage.
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.
Currumbin 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, Currumbin 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.

Currumbin: history and local area
Samuel William Grey was the first European to take up land here, and clearing started in the late 1800s. Subdivisions were advertised from 1904, the first hotel went up in 1910 and the Thrower Drive Bridge opened in 1926. Many houses still date from the 1920s subdivisions. The name comes from the Yugambeh word Garambin, meaning quicksand or a type of pine, and this is Tulgigin clan land.
Currumbin runs from Currumbin Creek south to Wyberba Street, between the motorway and the sea. Elephant Rock, Currumbin Alley and the beach draw surfers and swimmers, and the heritage-listed Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary is a major attraction. Steep hillsides have kept much of the natural vegetation, with Currumbin Hill Conservation Park nearby. Housing ranges from 1920s homes and fibro beach houses to hillside high-rise.
Steep, leafy hillsides and a mix of 1920s houses, fibro beach homes and high-rise mean shading, roof condition and strata rules all need checking before panels go up.
