Energy Usage

The right solar system size for your Mandurah property depends on how much electricity you use each day. Homes that shift heavy usage to daylight hours — running dishwashers, washing machines, and charging EVs during the day — often get more value from every solar panel.

Future-proofing is worth considering: if you plan to add an EV, heat pump, or pool, your energy needs may grow — and sizing your solar system a little larger now can save money later.

Typical energy usage per person per day in Mandurah:

Low (Efficient)
~5 kWh
Medium (average)
~10 kWh
High (intensive)
~15+ kWh

Note: Actual usage varies depending on property size, building efficiency, climate, and appliances.

Solar System Sizing

In Mandurah, a 6.6kW system would cover your average daily consumption and start reducing your electricity bills from day one. The 9.9kW to 13.2kW range accounts for real-world conditions — cloudy days, seasonal variation, and the fact that panels rarely perform at peak all day.

A 9.9 kW solar array in Mandurah delivers approximately 42.8 kWh daily, with generation varying seasonally from 3.51 kWh/kW/day in June up to 4.83 kWh/kW/day in February.

Solar & Energy Savings


Calculate Heat Pump & EV Savings

Electrify your home by replacing gas heating, petrol vehicles, and other fossil fuel appliances with electric alternatives powered by clean solar energy. This delivers significant additional financial savings and substantial carbon emission reductions. Our calculator helps you compare costs and model the financial impact of switching to electric appliances and vehicles.

How Solar Reduces Your Electricity Bills

The calculations below show how your electricity bills change with solar. Your Old Bill of - per month (- annually) is calculated from your total energy consumption multiplied by the grid electricity rate. Your New Bill of - per month (- annually) accounts for solar generation, the percentage you use directly (self-consumption), remaining grid consumption, and feed-in credits for excess energy exported to the grid. This results in monthly savings of - (- annually).

Battery Storage Mandurah


Solar Battery Sizing

Without battery storage, a 9.9 kW system in Mandurah achieves approximately 50% energy self-sufficiency, with the remaining 50% supplied by the grid. Installing a 10 kWh battery boosts your energy independence to around 86% per year, cutting grid dependency down to 14%.

Battery economics depend on your specific tariff structure and usage patterns — the Photonik design tool can model these scenarios with your actual electricity plan.

0 kWh 30 kWh

lightbulb A 0kWh battery will make you about 0% self sufficient.

The sweet spot for most households is 5 – 13 kWh — larger batteries add independence but with diminishing payback, especially where feed-in tariffs are low.

Solar & Battery System Cost Mandurah


Understanding Solar & Battery System Costs

For Mandurah homeowners looking to reduce their electricity bills, a $11,137 solar installation can dramatically lower or even eliminate that ongoing monthly cost. With a 5.8-year payback and a 25-year panel lifespan, a solar system in Mandurah can deliver many years of essentially free electricity after paying for itself.

These are estimated costs — actual prices vary based on your roof type, equipment choice, and installer. We recommend getting at least three quotes to compare for your Mandurah property.
