How much a 20kw solar system cost in Australia?
A Fully installed 20kW solar system starts from around (as at July 2022) $15,000 in Queensland (after STC discount).

With a 20kw system you can potentially save up to $8,000 per year in energy bills, it does depend on how much electricity and solar energy you pay though. For best economy, its best to try and use the power during the day when it is generated.
In terms of actual savings from installing a 20kW solar system on the roof, this depends entirely on the efficiency of the solar energy equipment being employed, and the type of feed-in tariff agreement you have with your electricity retailer (export of excess solar energy not used and sold to the grid). We'll do a quote to give you an idea of what a system this size will cost, but there are a few things we need to know first, like kind of roof do you have, as well as whether or not the house was two stories. Is your house on a single phase, or is it actually on three-phase connection? Is the connection compliant? Do you want to pay cash, or purchase on terms? Try our ONLINE SOLAR QUOTE!

20kw solar with a battery storage
Even though we don’t recommend any battery systems at this time, that is likely to change in the near future. All solar systems we supply can have battery storage systems installed, using AC coupling. This allows you to connect a battery to any property, as it connects directly to the main power supply. If you were looking to add a battery storage option to a 20kW solar system package you will be able to use the power produced during the day, for use at night. Saying that, battery backup options are quite expensive, and tend to greatly increase the repayment period of your investment. Talk to us and we will be happy to advise you if this is the right option for you.
In conclusion
A 20 kW solar system is a relatively large power plant, and the biggest that most residential situations will allow. However, it is ideal for commercial premises; if you have the roof space and consistently high daily energy consumption. The amount you can save from a 20kw solar power system depends on the power it can produce for your business and your power needs. The amount your business can save by installing a 20kw solar PV system will depend on how much you pay for electricity, and how much electricity you use. We can help you work that out.
