SOLAR IN MORANBAH
Solar for Moranbah and the Bowen Basin
We install rooftop solar and batteries in Moranbah and the Bowen Basin towns, from our base in Mackay. Your written quote comes within 24 hours of your power bill.
If your household uses a lot of power in the evening, a battery is worth pricing with the panels. Your bill shows when you use it, and that is what we size from.
Moranbah is outside our online booking area, which covers suburbs within about an hour of Mackay. For cleaning here, ring us or send the form and we quote it.
Grid notes
Moranbah is on the Ergon network. Under Ergon's standard rules, a single phase home can connect an inverter of just under 10 kVA, and a three phase home just under 30 kVA. That limit counts solar and battery together. We read your phase from your bill and lodge the Ergon application for you.

What makes solar here different
-
Evening use
A lot of power used after dark is where a battery helps. We size it from your own meter data.
-
Single or three phase
Your bill tells us which supply you have, and that decides how big a system Ergon lets you connect under the standard rules.
-
Blackouts
A grid-connected system switches off when the grid goes down. A battery with a backup circuit keeps the essentials on.

What our customers say
Reviews from real Mackay businesses and homes.
The team came to do a Solar panel health check. They were punctual, courteous and explained what was going to happen. The report arrived day after appointment as promised with photos showing possible causes of less efficient panels. I would confidently recommend Next Phase Solar for their panel check and clean.
Had Brad out to give the panels a clean. Friendly bloke, in and out quick and they look brand new again. Cheers guys, will be booking again.
Good service!!!!!!!!!!!!
We wanted a decent sized battery and they were the only ones who didn't try to talk us into something smaller. 32kWh GoodWe, installed in a day, boys were on time and left the place tidy. Brad answered every question I had, and a few after as well. Couldn't ask for better!
Very pleased with the whole experience, right from quote to saving money with no more electricity bill. The quote was very competitive and the job was done in timely manner. Would recommend Brad and the team to anyone thinking of solar
Really happy with my new solar panels at home. The whole thing was smooth and stress free, and they took the time to explain everything and answer all my questions, which I really appreciated. Great service and lovely to deal with. Thank you.
Fast and easy from start to finish. I just needed a battery added and they sorted it out really quickly, much faster than I expected after hearing how long other companies take. Brad was great, clear and helpful the whole way through. Highly recommend them if you are in Mackay.
After getting a few quotes, We decided to go with Next Phase Solar and we're really glad we did. They were upfront, easy to deal with, and there were no surprises along the way. Install day went smoothly and everything works perfectly!
I would highly recommend Next Phase Solar. 🥰 From first contact, to install and then aftercare they've been friendly, helpful and professional. The system is performing well and I'm happy with the outcome! 😁
Really good value. I wanted to add a battery to my setup and shopped around a fair bit, and Brad came back with the best price out of everyone I asked. No pushy sales, just a straight good deal and the job done properly. Happy customer, would recommend them to anyone in Mackay looking at solar or batteries🙏🏻
FAQs about solar in Moranbah
Quick answers about solar in Moranbah.
Yes. Next Phase Solar is Mackay-owned and based at 29 Peel Street, Mackay. The phone is answered here, not by a call centre.
Under Ergon's standard rules, a single phase home can connect an inverter of just under 10 kVA, and a three phase home just under 30 kVA. A battery inverter counts towards the same limit. Above that, Ergon needs a negotiated connection, which takes longer. We read your phase from your bill before we size anything.
Yes. We lodge the Ergon connection application, the export limit and the meter request, and we do the STC paperwork at no charge.
Not always. If you use most of your power in the evening, or you want power during a blackout, a battery is worth pricing. Your bill shows which one you are.
