What are the upsize options?

Modified on Fri, 13 Oct, 2023 at 6:14 PM

The Rebate Swap for Solar program is here to help eligible low income households in NSW reduce their energy costs by providing solar PV systems. The base system offered is a 3.3kW (8 panels) solar PV system with a 2.5kW inverter.


What are the upsize options?

There are three upsize options of 4kW, 5kW and 6kW systems available.


How do I explore an upsize system?

You can email or call us to let us know at any time you're interested in an upsize, and we'll make a note. 


When will I get to see my upsize quote options?

The UPowr team will send you quotes for any upsize options after your application for the base system is approved by the government. This is to streamline the application process. The estimated processing time is 1-2 weeks after your site inspection day. 


Should I upsize my system?

At your site inspection, you can ask your installer about the maximum panels that will fit on your roof and the potential savings benefits for you. To make this decision, you will need to consider: 

  1. Your current energy usage.
  2. The available safe and sunny roof space for solar panels.
  3. Your capacity to pay the extra cost out of pocket.
