SOLAR PANELS
The panel you choose affects how much power your roof can produce, how well your system holds up in Queensland and NSW heat, and how long it performs before output starts to drop.
What We Install and Why
Every panel we install uses monocrystalline silicon cells. Polycrystalline technology has been overtaken on efficiency, heat performance and long-term degradation, and there is no longer a cost advantage worth the trade-off.
Within monocrystalline, the distinction that matters today is between older P-type cells and the newer N-type cells used in premium panels. P-type panels still account for a large share of budget installations, but they are more prone to light-induced degradation (LID) in their first year and lose output faster over time. N-type cells resist LID almost entirely, hold up better in heat, and deliver higher efficiency ratings. For homeowners in South East Queensland or along the NSW coast where summer temperatures regularly push past 35°C, that heat tolerance means more usable power when you need it most.
Every system we quote uses N-type panels as standard.
Our Preferred Panel Brands
We have tested, installed and monitored a wide range of panel brands over the years. The two we recommend and lead with are Aiko Solar and Jinko Solar.
Aiko Solar uses a proprietary technology called ABC (All Back Contact), which moves all electrical connections to the rear of the cell. The result is a panel with no visible grid lines on the front, higher efficiency per square metre, and better performance under partial shade. Their Neostar 2S 440W panel delivers 23.1% efficiency with a temperature coefficient of -0.26%/°C, which is among the best available for Australian conditions. Aiko backs their residential panels with a 25-year product warranty and a 30-year performance warranty guaranteeing output above 88% at the end of that period. They won the SolarQuotes Installers’ Choice Award in both 2025 and 2026, voted by accredited installers across Australia. Aiko maintains an office in Melbourne.
Jinko Solar is one of the largest panel manufacturers in the world and has been a trusted name in Australian solar for well over a decade. Their Tiger Neo N-type range delivers strong, reliable performance at a competitive price point. The 440W residential model uses TOPCon cell technology, and Jinko’s local presence through their Sydney office means warranty support is straightforward. For homeowners who want a proven, high-volume brand with a long track record in Australia, Jinko is a solid choice.
We also work with other established brands including Sungrow, Fronius, SolarEdge and Solis panels where a specific project calls for it.

So, Which Panel is right for you?
That depends on your roof, your budget and your priorities. If you have limited roof space or want the highest possible output per panel, Aiko’s ABC technology gives you the most watts per square metre available today. If you are after a well-established brand with strong value across larger system sizes, Jinko’s Tiger Neo range delivers excellent performance for the price.
Either way, every system we quote uses monocrystalline N-type panels, and we will walk you through exactly why we have recommended a specific panel for your property during your consultation. Our team of solar experts are here to both help you choose the right solar products for your project, and ensure a seamless installation.
