When Is the Best Time of Year to Install Solar?

Auswell Energy highlights the best time of year to install solar panels and solar batteries in Brisbane.

If you’re considering solar energy, timing your installation can impact your system’s performance and return on investment. In general, the best time of year to install solar panels and solar batteries in Brisbane is during the late Summer and early Autumn months. Here’s why this period is ideal. 

Why Late Summer to Early Autumn Is Best

Maximising Sunshine Hours

Brisbane enjoys ample sunshine throughout the year, but these months offer the strongest sunlight as the days lengthen in summer. Installing your solar system during this time allows you to immediately benefit from increased solar energy generation. This is crucial for optimising your solar batteries in Brisbane, ensuring they are fully charged and ready to meet your energy needs throughout the year. 

Avoiding Peak Installation Season

Another advantage of installing your solar system during late summer or early autumn also helps to avoid the peak installation season. Many homeowners rush to install solar panels in early summer, leading to longer wait times and higher demand for installers. By planning your installation at the end of summer, you can bypass this busy period and potentially secure better deals on installation services.

Optimal Weather Conditions

The weather in Brisbane leading into early autumn is generally stable, with fewer rainy days compared to the latter end of the year. These months provide ideal conditions for a smooth and efficient installation process, reducing the likelihood of weather-related delays.

Stable weather means that installers can work without interruptions, ensuring that your solar system is set up quickly and efficiently. This reduces the risk of any unforeseen delays that could impact your system’s performance or your ability to start saving on energy costs.
