Going solar in Fig Tree Pocket
Brisbane's west takes in leafy riverside suburbs like Indooroopilly, Kenmore and Chapel Hill, the Centenary suburbs, and hillier, tree-lined streets around The Gap, Ashgrove and Ferny Grove where shading needs careful planning.
Brisbane covers everything from Queenslanders with tin roofs and tight inner-city lots to big brick homes in the southern and western suburbs. Every roof is different, which is why we measure and design each one on site.
Fig Tree Pocket 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.

Fig Tree Pocket: history and local area
John Oxley rowed past in 1823 while exploring the Brisbane River. In 1866 a reserve of 1.6 hectares was set aside around an enormous Moreton Bay fig said to shelter 400 people, and that tree gave the area its name, though it is long gone. A school opened in 1871 and a post office in 1878. Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary followed in 1927.
The river loops around three sides of this pocket, with the Centenary Motorway closing off the north-west. Just over 4,300 people live here, about 13.1 km south-west of the CBD. Lone Pine, billed as the world's oldest and largest koala sanctuary, draws visitors, while a 16 hectare equestrian club and the Riverside Reserve boat ramp serve locals. Some properties were hit by the 2010 to 2011 floods.
Riverfront blocks that went under in the 2010 to 2011 floods are a reminder to place inverters and batteries well above known flood levels, and to plan a system that can be isolated quickly if water rises.
