Your roof
Available roof area, orientation, shading and access shape the panel layout. A system that fits on paper still needs a practical installation plan.

Designed around your needs
A useful quote starts with your home.
A low headline price is only useful when you know what it includes. Roof access, shading, your switchboard and the connection approval can all change the design. We review those details alongside your electricity use before recommending a system. If a battery or EV is on your list, tell us now so the solar design can account for it.
Your electricity use
A recent bill is a starting point. Usage by time of day helps distinguish electricity you can use directly from solar that may be exported.
Your next upgrade
Tell us about a battery, EV charger or electric heating plans. Inverter compatibility and capacity matter when you add equipment later.
Compare with confidence
What to look for in your proposal.
Keep these details together when comparing equipment options or quotes. Ask for clarification wherever a cost or responsibility is unclear.
Talk through your options- Panel brand, exact model, quantity and total array capacity in kW.
- Inverter model, output rating and any battery compatibility requirements.
- Mounting, cabling, monitoring and the installation work included.
- Connection application, metering responsibilities and export assumptions.
- Itemised incentives, eligibility conditions and the final amount payable.
- Product and workmanship warranty terms, exclusions and support contacts.
Price and scope
What changes the price of a solar installation?
System size is one part of the price. Equipment selection, a two-storey roof, difficult access, switchboard work and cable routes can also affect the quote. Compare the complete installed scope and confirm which site conditions could lead to a variation. We use a property-specific proposal rather than an unverified online price estimate.
Make a considered choice
Compare options on the same basis.
Keep the panel capacity, inverter output, installation scope and incentive assumptions beside each other when comparing proposals. A larger array does not automatically produce a better return: daytime consumption, export limits and your electricity plan all matter. Any projected savings should show the tariff, generation and self-consumption assumptions used.
From enquiry to proposal
Three steps to a clearer decision.
Book a conversation
Choose a consultation time below, or call our team. Explain your property, priorities and timing.
Review the details
Have your property address, a recent electricity bill and your upgrade goals ready. Only provide existing photos of your roof or switchboard if available; there is no need to climb onto the roof or open electrical equipment.
Assess the proposal
Review the recommended equipment, installed scope, incentives and any outstanding site checks before deciding.
Available times
Let's work through your quote.
Choose a consultation time with Lightning Energy. This starts a conversation about your project; it does not commit you to an installation.
Will I receive quotes from several installers?
No. This is a direct enquiry to Lightning Energy. We can discuss equipment and system options for our proposal; this is not a multi-installer comparison service.
Do I need to know the system size first?
No. Start with your address, electricity use and goals. Roof constraints, connection requirements and future loads help determine a suitable design.
Can I get solar without a battery?
Yes. Solar-only and solar-plus-battery systems serve different needs. We can discuss a battery pathway without assuming storage is right for you now.
Are rebates included?
Your proposal should identify each applicable incentive separately and explain eligibility. Solar Victoria support and federal small-scale technology certificates are separate arrangements; approval and installation requirements still apply.
What happens after I enquire?
Choose a consultation time using the booking section, or call the team. We will review your requirements and explain what information or site assessment is needed for a proposal.
