Solar & Battery — Brisbane, Gold Coast & South East QLD

Electrician-designed solar, premium panels & inverters, genuine 5-year workmanship warranty.

More than panels on a roof

A good solar system in South East Queensland is not just panels on a roof. It’s a custom electrical design that has to suit your usage, your roof, your switchboard, Energex connection rules and your plans for a battery or EV charger later. Energy Gate does the electrical details properly: panel layout, inverter matching, cable sizing, roof penetrations, protection, monitoring, grid paperwork and warranty registration.

Solar Panel Installation

What your solar installation includes

We handle the whole job end to end — the parts you don’t see (cable sizing, switchboard protection, earthing) are done properly to standard, which is exactly where cut-price installers cut corners.

Custom design based on your bill, roof, shading, switchboard and future battery or EV plans

Sized within ~133% DC:AC oversizing, on unshaded roof faces, with multi-MPPT inverters for different orientations

Correct cable sizing for Queensland heat, Type A protection, roof penetrations properly flashed

Energex connection application and export setting handled as part of the job

Electrical safety certificate and warranty registration provided on completion

Meter reconfiguration so your exports are correctly credited, with app monitoring checked at day one and again at about a month

How we size your system

The right size depends on how much electricity you use, when you use it, how much good roof space you have, and whether you want a battery or EV later. A 6.6kW system can still suit smaller homes, but many Brisbane and SEQ households now look at 10–13kW+ because air conditioning, pool pumps, batteries and EV charging all lift demand.

Solar Zone 3 and the rebate stepdown

South East Queensland is in solar Zone 3 for STC calculations, and in 2026 the rooftop solar deeming period is five years. That matters because the federal solar incentive steps down every January until the scheme ends in 2030 — sizing and timing both affect what you get back.

  Fred installed a Sigenergy battery system with a DC EV charger at our home in Brisbane, and I'd happily recommend him.

He came out for a site visit, and I had a detailed proposal the same evening. What stood out was his honesty. Instead of upselling, he told me I didn't need to replace my existing solar panels yet, and that I could add them later to the sigenergy inverter if I wanted to.

When I asked to move the batteries into the garage so we could charge the car there, and to add a larger gateway, inverter and DC charger, Fred called me to talk through the options before sending a revised quote. He was quick to respond and easy to reach the whole way through, and he never pushed me. The installation was seamless and the Battery has been working flawlessly since the day it was installed.

Fred spent 2 hours in setting up the app for my and explained all the details and how to use it. Three weeks since the installation and use of this battery system and no issues at all.

  Great job by Fred at EnergyGate. Fred made sure I knew how to use the system and answered my questions about charging the car over the weekend. My first bill for the month is down to $12! He was happy to accommodate my small solar system and get it to work for my energy needs and new EV.

  I'd like to recommend EnergyGate and Fred. Fred was the only solar installer interested in doing a site visit.
I have  two rooftops that were suitable but I wasn't sure how they all could be connected.
Fred came up with a plan of 9.5kW of PV and a GoodWe 15kW ESA all in one with initially 32kW of storage in my garage which is next to my switchboard. Fred Installed
a GoodWe 8kW grid tie inverter with 9kW of PV on my carport. This inverter has been AC coupled with the all in one. This system was installed in September 2026 and is located in South East Queensland.
The energy input into my batteries and grid has been pretty amazing and I soon relised that I could  easily charge up to 50kW of Batteries. I talked to Fred and he arranged for these to be  installed a couple of weeks later.
The SEMS plus app is easy to use.
Fred was easy to communicate with and the system install went smoothly. We are very happy with the final result.

  Expert advice and flawless execution by Energy GateChoosing the right setup among so many options can be overwhelming, but Fred Amiri made it simple. He customized a brilliant solution for us, integrating new solar and an EV charger with a 15kW inverter, 40kW battery, and gateway. Fred’s knowledge is top-tier, and the entire experience with Energy Gate was fantastic. Highly recommended for any serious residential energy project!

  I looked into the market to find a good battery system and more importantly a great installer to give me a peace of mind for this investment. After some time, i came across Energy gate and upon my conversations with them to find the most suitable system for my needs, their expertise and experience became clear to me and that was paramount to me and then signed the contract with them. The system was installed beautifully and neatly. Running perfectly since then. Fred is great to deal with, don’t go past EnergyGate.

Frequently Asked questions

Your questions, answered

How long do home batteries last, and what is the warranty?

Modern batteries are built for daily charging and discharging over many years, and quality units are warranted to retain a healthy share of capacity across a 10 to 12-year period. FoxESS, for example, warrants at least 70% capacity retention, with a 12-year term on the CQ6. We register the warranty for you, and our own 5-year written workmanship warranty covers the installation.

Are home batteries safe?

The batteries we install use LFP chemistry, the safest mainstream chemistry for home storage, and each has a built-in battery management system monitoring temperature, voltage and charge. Several models add further fire-safety features. Installed correctly to Australian standards by a qualified electrician, a quality home battery is a safe addition to your home.

What rebates apply, and can I get both?

Two separate federal incentives apply, and a combined system can use both. Your panels earn small-scale technology certificates (STCs) under the long-running solar scheme. Your battery earns a separate discount under the Cheaper Home Batteries Program. Both come off your price upfront, and we itemise each one so you can see what the solar and the battery each contribute.

Which circuits can I back up, and for how long?

You can usually choose your essentials: lights, fridge and freezer, internet, power points and often an air conditioner. Runtime depends on the battery’s stored capacity and what you run. Backing up the whole home including the heaviest loads is possible but costs more, so we help you decide what is worth protecting.

Can a battery run my whole house, including air conditioning?

It can, within its power rating. A well-sized battery comfortably runs everyday loads and a typical air conditioner, though very heavy simultaneous loads can exceed what a single battery delivers at once. We design around how your household actually uses power, and where needed a higher-power battery or a multi-module system handles bigger demand.

What size battery do I need?

It depends on how much power you use after dark, how much surplus solar you have to store, and whether you want backup. Too small and you are buying grid power by mid-evening. Far too large and it may never fully charge or pay for itself. We size it to your real evening and overnight usage and explain the trade-offs.

Is a battery worth it in South East Queensland?

For many SEQ homes, yes. The federal rebate has cut the upfront cost, export credits are low, and local households have high evening and air-conditioning loads. A battery is most valuable if you have plenty of surplus daytime solar and real usage after dark. We give you a straight, conservative assessment rather than assuming it always stacks up.
