The cost of home solar power systems increased across much of Australia in November, but not all states saw a price hike.<\/p>\n

The following table indicates prices paid (cost per watt) across all system sizes and after all rebates\/subsidies in November 2021 compared to October, and November 2020. The numbers for November are based on pricing information SolarQuotes received on 411 system purchases.<\/p>\n

And here’s an updated graph of the national cost-per-watt picture (all system sizes) going back to December 2019:<\/p>\n

\"Solar<\/a><\/p>\n

The following graph shows historical pricing on 6.6kW solar systems<\/a>. While 6.6kw is still the most popular size, many Australians are choosing to install bigger systems; usually up to 10kW<\/a> – which is around the maximum capacity that can be installed on an average residential rooftop.<\/p>\n

\"6.6kW<\/a><\/p>\n

The graphs are from SolarQuotes’ Australian Solar Price Index<\/a>; an interactive tool based on information submitted to SQ in solar installer reviews<\/a> that also include reviews of installers not associated with the SQ network. The figures above may change given the Index is updated as new reviews come in.<\/p>\n

What Happened In November?<\/h2>\n

Prices appear to have really shot up in Victoria in November 2021 and to a lesser degree in Western Australia and Queensland. It’s harder to gauge smaller jurisdictions such as the ACT, NT and Tasmania due to the comparatively small amount of data we have on each.<\/p>\n

The increases may reflect businesses in those states running on particularly thin margins and solar panel price hikes – which should be temporary – really starting to bite. Still, solar energy remains a solid investment in all three states, as it does across Australia.<\/p>\n

There’s some potentially good news on the solar panel side of things. One of the drivers of price increases has been the cost of polysilicon, which is used in the manufacture of solar cells. Polysilicon spot prices topped out at more than USD $36\/kg early December, five times the price prior to the pandemic and other events piling the pressure on.<\/p>\n

But since early December polysilicon spot prices have dropped<\/a> – down to around USD $32 last week. It still has a long way to go to get back to “normal” levels, but the outlook is good with a bunch of new production capacity coming online recently and in the not-too-distant future.<\/p>\n

Something else perhaps coming into play towards the end of November has to do with the solar rebate<\/a>; i.e. the up-front subsidy on installation. The level of subsidy reduces at the beginning of year. Given it’s based on when a system is installed rather than purchased, some sales in November would have been for an early 2022 installation.<\/p>\n

Why It’s A Good Idea To Buy Solar Now<\/h2>\n

If you\u2019re considering putting off installing panels for whatever reason, consider this centuries-old observation<\/a> from Robert Burns:<\/p>\n

“The best laid schemes o\u2019 Mice an\u2019 Men
\nGang aft agley,
\nAn\u2019 lea\u2019e us nought but grief an\u2019 pain,
\nFor promis\u2019d joy!”<\/p>\n

“Gan aft agley” translates to “often go awry”. Many Australians would have experienced plans winding up that way over the last couple of years.<\/p>\n

But aside from something out of left field (or in line of sight) putting more spanners in the works; the longer a household puts off harvesting solar energy from their rooftop, the longer they are paying their electricity retailer far more than they need to for mains supply. Any savings made while waiting for solar system pricing to drop might be gobbled up by bigger electricity bills.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
