Solar panels in Nudgee, installed properly
A family solar company that measures your roof, explains the numbers and installs it right the first time.
Why Nudgee homes choose RS Energy for solar panels
Plenty of companies sell solar on price alone. We sell it on quality, because a system that is designed and installed well keeps paying you back for decades. Every Nudgee quote starts with a free measure of your roof.
A typical 6.6kW system in Nudgee makes about 27.7kWh a day on average across the year, while a 10kW system makes about 42kWh. Nudgee 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.
Brisbane's northside ranges from the grand old homes of Ascot, Hamilton and Clayfield to family suburbs like Aspley, Chermside and Bracken Ridge and the bayside villages of Sandgate and Shorncliffe. Our solar panels work in Nudgee also covers neighbouring Banyo, Nudgee Beach and Virginia, all within about 3km.

Nudgee: a local snapshot
Nudgee comes from a Yugarabul word meaning place of ducks. St Vincent's Orphanage opened on Queens Road in 1866, and Nudgee Cemetery began a year later, growing into the largest private cemetery in Brisbane. The state school opened in 1875 and St Joseph's College in 1891. Nudgee Golf Club teed off in 1930 and expanded to 36 holes in 1985.
The Gateway Motorway marks the north-east edge, Kedron Brook the south-east, and Nundah Creek separates it from Boondall. Nudgee Waterhole Reserve holds a bora ring, and cultural tours are run there. Trains stop at Nudgee station on the Shorncliffe line. Farmhouses, the old orphanage and the cemetery are among its heritage-listed places, and the Banyo Devils play rugby league on Childs Road.

Solar panels in Nudgee: questions
Still unsure? Talk to us directly. You will speak with the people who do the work.
Call 0449 942 735How much does solar cost in Nudgee?
Most Nudgee homes pay between $4,800 and $7,000 for a quality 6.6kW system and $7,400 to $11,000 for 10kW, after the federal rebate. We give you a fixed price after a free on-site measure, so there are no surprises on install day.
What size solar system do I need in Nudgee?
Look at your bill. Most families using 20 to 30kWh a day suit 6.6kW to 10kW. If you run pool pumps, ducted air or an EV, or plan to add a battery, 10kW to 13kW usually makes more sense. Energex export limits also shape the right inverter size.
Is solar still worth it with low feed-in tariffs?
Yes, if the system is sized for self-use. Every kWh you use from your panels saves you the full retail rate, which is far more than the few cents you get for exporting. Running dishwashers, pool pumps and hot water in the middle of the day makes a big difference, and a battery stretches it into the evening.
How long does installation take?
Most homes are done in a single day. We book the install once your network approval comes back, then arrange the meter change with your retailer.
Do you install solar on tile, tin and Klip-Lok roofs in Nudgee?
Yes. We install on concrete and terracotta tiles, corrugated iron, Colorbond and Klip-Lok, with tilt frames where a flat roof needs them.
Do you service Nudgee 4014 and nearby suburbs?
Yes. Nudgee is part of our Brisbane Northside service area in the Brisbane City Council area, and we regularly work in Banyo, Nudgee Beach, Virginia, Northgate. Call 0449 942 735 or request a quote online and we will reply within 24 hours.
