Going solar in Hope Island
The northern Gold Coast is one of the fastest growing parts of Queensland, from the canals of Runaway Bay and Hope Island to new estates in Coomera, Pimpama and Ormeau and semi-rural blocks around Wongawallan.
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.
Hope Island 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.

Hope Island: history and local area
Captain Louis Hope came to Moreton Bay in 1848 and spent two decades building up sugar plantations. In 1867 he was granted this island, then known by its Indigenous name Boykambil, for his work on Queensland's sugar industry. The Rockholm plantation was largely built up by the Grimes family, and by the 1900s the land had passed to the Sheehan and Davidson families.
Rivers frame the suburb, with the Coomera River on three sides and Saltwater Creek to the south. It has grown as three towns, each built around a real estate development: gated Sanctuary Cove in the north, Boykambil in the east and Santa Barbara in the west. Three golf courses, The Palms, The Pines and the Hope Island Resort course, share the area with three marinas, including Hope Harbour.
Resort-style homes around the golf courses and marinas are often large, with pools and big cooling loads, and estate design rules may apply, so it pays to check guidelines and use coastal-rated hardware near the water.
