Stop paying for Ergon price hikes. Store your 6-cent solar and power your Mackay home for less.

Residential solar, home batteries and EV chargers designed for Mackay, the Whitsundays and the Coalfields. Cyclone-rated rooftop systems, Ergon export-limit paperwork, battery rebate guidance and local electricians — no sales-only subcontractor roulette.

"Our summer power bill was brutal after the credits ended. Next Phase sized solar, battery and EV charging around our actual Ergon usage — not a generic package."

"Our summer bills in Proserpine were hitting $1,200 a quarter with the ducted aircon. Next Phase installed solar and a battery; the last bill was $45."

"When the grid went down, the battery kept the fridge, lights and phones running. That storm was the moment the system paid for itself emotionally."

"They added a Zappi charger to our solar so the car soaks up midday power instead of exporting it for cents. Local, neat and no pressure."

Straight answers

The questions we get from Mackay homeowners every week.

Usually it cuts the bill heavily, but Ergon's daily supply charge still remains. Batteries and EV smart charging improve the result by using your daytime solar at night instead of buying grid power.
Yes, but the strategy has changed. We design for self-consumption: run daytime loads, charge a battery, and divert excess solar into your EV instead of exporting cheap power for around 6 cents.
We use cyclone-rated mounting, corrosion-resistant rails and stainless fixtures designed for local wind regions. Your site inspection checks roof structure, fixing points and exposure before we quote.
Yes. Single-phase homes commonly face 10 kW inverter and 5 kW export limits; three-phase homes can allow more, and rural SWER lines can be tighter. We handle the grid paperwork.
Not every home does, but batteries now solve the 6-cent export problem and can improve blackout resilience. We model solar-only, solar-plus-battery and EV-ready options side by side.
Most standard home installs land around $800–$2,500 depending on switchboard distance, cable route and whether single-phase or three-phase charging is available.
No sales-only handoff. Your system is designed, installed and supported by local Next Phase electricians who know Mackay roofs, Ergon rules and cyclone-season realities.
