Industry Sectors
System Installed
Melbourne Energy Group designed and supplied a complete solar and battery solution comprising:
- 20.24kW solar PV system.
- 46 x Trina Vertex S+ 440W N-Type Dual Glass solar panels.
- 46 x Enphase IQ8AC microinverters.
- 15kWh Enphase IQ Battery storage system.
- Enphase monitoring and energy management platform.
- Roof-mounted array configured across multiple roof orientations to optimise solar generation throughout the day.
Project Outcomes
The completed system was designed to generate approximately 25,175kWh of renewable electricity annually, exceeding the property’s estimated annual consumption requirements.
- Solar generation equivalent to 148% of annual electricity demand.
- Approximately 46% onsite self-consumption.
- Surplus generation exported to the electricity grid.
- Estimated first-year electricity bill savings of $4,398.
- Projected lifetime electricity bill savings exceeding $105,000.
- Estimated net financial benefit of approximately $56,700 over the assessment period.
Key Project Metrics
| Metric | Outcome |
|---|---|
| Solar Capacity | 20.24kW |
| Battery Capacity | 15kWh |
| Annual Solar Generation | 25,175kWh |
| Annual Electricity Consumption | 17,000kWh |
| Estimated Annual Savings | $4,398 |
| Lifetime Electricity Savings | $105,649 |
| Estimated Net Financial Benefit | $56,751 |
| Energy Offset | 148% |

Environmental Impact
The system is projected to reduce carbon emissions by approximately 27 tonnes annually while generating enough renewable energy to offset the equivalent of more than 805,000 kilometres of vehicle travel over its operational life. This contributes to long-term emissions reduction and increased use of renewable energy within the residential sector.
Discuss Your Residential Solar and Battery Project with Melbourne Energy Group
Every home has different energy usage patterns, electricity costs and future energy requirements. A well-designed solar and battery system should be sized around how the property uses energy today and how those requirements may change over time.
Melbourne Energy Group works with homeowners across Victoria to assess solar and battery opportunities, system sizing requirements and available incentive programs.
Our team can provide advice on solar generation, battery storage, electricity bill reduction and long-term energy planning to help homeowners make informed decisions about their energy future.
