Our solar sales consultants can help you choose the correct system size based on your energy usage and assist with the battery addon options.
If you already have solar panels installed or are looking at our solar + battery bundle options, Nectr has secured a range of leading home batteries.
Adding solar panels to your home can result in savings on your power bills. By using power from your solar panels during the day you should see a steep reduction in your electricity bill overall.
By harnessing the power of the sun and mitigating the harmful effects of fossil fuels, we can play a vital role in saving the planet. Solar power is 100% renewable and doesn’t use any water, gas, oil, or coal to produce power for your home or business.
Embracing solar energy not only helps protect the planet and alleviates the burdens of the Australian energy crisis, but it can also help provide financial relief in the face of ever-increasing power bills, fuel prices, interest rates, and inflation rates.
By adding solar panels to your home, you will begin using power from your panels during the day, rather than from the electricity grid, and you should see a reduction in your overall electricity bill.
Furthermore, installing solar panels can also increase the value of your property. Plus, when Nectr’s solar experts help you to customise and install the ideal system for your household, you could achieve a massive reduction in your electricity bill.
After speaking with a Nectr solar energy consultant and selecting the ideal solar system for your needs, we will arrange for one of our endorsed installers to come and visit your premises.
Nectr partners with a group of highly qualified, experienced and certified installers for our solar and battery bundled products. These Nectr-endorsed partners will take measurements at your premises and recommend the best location for your hardware, then schedule a date to come back and install your system.
Signing up for a solar energy plan is simple. Just visit the Nectr website and request a quote. Our solar energy consultants will discuss options with you to determine the best solar energy plan for your specific needs.
Solar batteries store surplus solar energy, providing benefits like energy independence, maximizing solar power utilisation, time-of-use savings, backup power during outages, reduced grid demand, and environmental sustainability. They extend the advantages of solar panels beyond daylight hours and work well with off-grid installations too.
There is a small range of rebates and incentives available to Australians who are looking at installing solar power systems at their home. For the most part, these rebates and incentives are offered by State Governments, and as such, will largely be determined by where you live and/or where you are installing your system.
Visit the Nectr website to learn more about which rebates and incentives may be available to you.

We don’t plan to change your energy plan pricing during the five-year contract term.
The only reason we would be able to vary your electricity prices, is where the costs we incur in selling you electricity varies or we expect they will, but only where that cost variation arises from a future Change in Law. Some examples of previous Change in Law events include the introduction of a carbon tax and a new government levy to support ambulance services. We would provide you with advance notice of any variation in your electricity prices.
Monthly cost is calculated on total cost of solar and battery (Nectr does not add fees or mark ups) divided into 60 equal installments.
If you decide to exit the Solar Battery contract early, you must pay the remainder of the Battery balance. Please note, the Battery Price decreases uniformly each month before reaching $0 on the day your contract ends at 5 years.
If you decide to exit the Solar Battery contract, you can still continue with the associated energy plan and $10 VPP participation. However you can also switch to another retailer at this point with no exit fees.
Some reasons for early exit include:
Nectr Plan Fees & Rates are set by your Local Energy Network Distributor and charged to Nectr on your behalf. You can review all the key fees in our Plans and fees page.
