Going solar in Palm Beach
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.
Palm Beach 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, Palm Beach 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.

Palm Beach: history and local area
The first church, a Baptist one on Ninth Avenue, opened in 1928, and the surf club was formed in 1930. Palm Beach-Currumbin State High School opened in 1972, with the primary school two years later. In 2019 a shoreline project added sand to the beach and built an artificial reef. The population grew from 14,654 in 2016 to 16,349 in 2021.
Palm Beach is boxed in by Tallebudgera Creek to the north, Currumbin Creek to the south, the motorway to the west and the sea to the east. Three surf clubs patrol the beach. Salk Oval, Mallawa Sports Complex and the aquatic centre cover sport, and the Gold Coast Highway strip between Eighth and Fourth Avenue is the place for shops and dining.
With the ocean on one side and two creeks on the others, Palm Beach homes live with salty, humid air, so marine-rated panels, rails and fixings belong on the checklist.
