Switch to Solar with Australian Energy Upgrades
Solar’s a smart move you can make right now to cut power bills, reduce your reliance on the grid and set your home up for the future. At Australian Energy Upgrades, we design and install quality solar setups for homes all over Melbourne, Geelong, Ballarat, Colac, Bendigo and the Mornington Peninsula. From rooftop panels and batteries to EV chargers and full home electrification, we’ll help you take control of your energy use.
With feed-in tariffs dropping, the Cheaper Home Batteries program beginning (which can net you 30% off a battery system) and energy prices climbing, switching to solar just makes sense. A good system lets you make your own power and use more of it right where you are, so you’re not leaning on the grid as much. That means smaller bills, fewer surprises, and a cleaner footprint. Whether you’re after a simple setup that feeds into the grid or a full energy solution with battery backup and smart monitoring, we’ll walk you through it start to finish.
