Solar and batteries in the Southern Highlands
Bowral is about 169 km from our Mitchell base, around two hours by road. We group our Southern Highlands visits so travel stays efficient, and the price is confirmed in writing before anything is booked.
In short
- The Southern Highlands are on the Endeavour Energy network, the only part of our area that is. We handle its connection rules for you.
- We group visits out this way, so site checks and installs are scheduled together with other nearby jobs.
- The same system usually costs about 15–30% more than our website prices, confirmed in writing before you commit.

What we install in the Southern Highlands
- Rooftop solar with Jinko and AIKO panels and GoodWe, Sungrow or Sigenergy inverters
- Home batteries from Sigenergy, Tesla Powerwall 3 and GoodWe, added to new or existing solar
- EV chargers, single-phase or three-phase, set up to charge from your solar
- Heat pump hot water from iStore and Reclaim, replacing old electric or gas units
- Off-grid and backup systems for properties at the end of long lines or beyond the grid
- Commercial solar for sheds, shops, offices and farms
A different network
Unlike the rest of our area, Bowral, Moss Vale, Mittagong and Bundanoon connect to the Endeavour Energy network. Endeavour has its own connection process and export limits, and we lodge the application and design the system to what it approves.
Cool winters and older homes
Highlands winters are cold and frosty, so we size systems with winter heating in mind, not just summer. Plenty of Highlands homes are older, with slate or heritage roofs, established trees and switchboards that may need an upgrade before solar or an EV charger goes in. We check all of this at the quote stage and show any switchboard work as its own line.
Rebates and pricing
The prices on this website are for the ACT and within 35 km of Canberra. Out here the same system usually costs about 15–30% more, for travel, time away and the warranty responsibility that comes with distance. We confirm the final price in writing before you commit to anything. Mittagong and Moss Vale are at the edge of our area, so we confirm those by phone before booking a site visit.
Every NSW home gets the same federal support as Canberra: small-scale technology certificates (STCs) come off the price of solar panels, and the Cheaper Home Batteries Program takes a tiered amount off an approved battery. Both are applied on your quote, so there is nothing to claim afterwards.
NSW’s upfront battery installation incentive has been closed to households since July 2025. What NSW does offer is a one-off incentive when you sign a battery up to a virtual power plant (VPP), and discounts on eligible heat pump hot water through the NSW Energy Savings Scheme. The ACT’s Sustainable Household Scheme loans are for ACT homes only. Our incentives page has the current figures, and your quote shows each discount as its own line.
How a job out here works
- Send us your address, a few photos of your roof and a recent power bill, or use the quote form.

Common questions
Do you really come to the Southern Highlands from Canberra?
Yes. It is about two hours by road, so we group visits out this way and confirm the price in writing before anything is booked.
Who approves my solar connection in Bowral?
Endeavour Energy. We lodge the connection application for you and design to the export limit it approves.
Can you install on a heritage or slate roof?
Often, yes, but it needs care and sometimes different mounting. We look at the roof at the quote stage and tell you honestly if it isn’t suitable.
Can I get the NSW battery rebate here?
The NSW upfront battery installation incentive has been closed to households since July 2025, so the main discount on a new battery is the federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program, which we apply on your quote. If you sign the battery up to a virtual power plant you can also earn a one-off NSW incentive through the VPP provider.
Your next step
Send us your address, a few photos of the roof and switchboard, and a recent bill. We will tell you when we are next in the Highlands.
