Going solar in South Murwillumbah

The Tweed runs from the border at Tweed Heads down the coast to Pottsville and inland along the river to Murwillumbah and Uki, a mix of beach houses, river-flat towns and hinterland acreage.

From the river towns around Murwillumbah to the beach suburbs of Kingscliff, Cabarita and Pottsville, the Tweed sits on the NSW side of the border, so it runs on Essential Energy's network and NSW energy rules.

South Murwillumbah is on Essential Energy's network, so your system is designed to Essential Energy's connection rules (typically a 5kW export limit) and NSW feed-in tariffs. We handle the network application for you.

  • Low-lying pockets of South Murwillumbah sit inside council flood mapping. Where it matters we mount inverters and batteries above the flood planning level and keep isolators easy to reach.

South Murwillumbah: history and local area

South Murwillumbah's heritage listing gives a clue to its past: Murwillumbah railway station on the Casino to Murwillumbah line is on the NSW State Heritage Register. The line reached Murwillumbah in 1894, and the station is now the starting point of the Northern Rivers Rail Trail. The suburb forms part of the Murwillumbah township in Tweed Shire.

At the 2011 census, 1,064 people lived here, with a median age of 41. Close to 88 per cent were born in Australia, and more than 92 per cent spoke only English at home. It uses the 2484 postcode, sits in the Tweed state electorate and the federal Division of Richmond, and is about 129 km south-south-east of Brisbane.

As part of a river town on the Tweed, flood planning matters here, so keeping batteries and inverters raised and choosing gear that can be isolated quickly in an emergency is a smart move.
