| 13.3kW — annual | 26,700 kWh/year |
Using 5.5 peak sun hours as a planning figure for Adelaide, a 13.3kW array can produce about 73.2 kWh/day and ~26,700 kWh/year. North vs east-west layouts, shade and inverter clipping change real results — insist on a site assessment.
STCs apply. SA’s Home Battery Scheme (loan-style support context) can influence battery timing. Indicative 6.6kW after STC often $4,800–$7,000 in competitive quotes. For Zone 3, MrSolar’s master table (spot $39.85 as of 2026-08-05) points to about $2,909 in STCs for a comparable residential size class. Indicative installed pricing still varies widely with roof complexity.
Adelaide homes with pools, ducted AC, EVs or high WFH loads more often land at 13.3kW+. Confirm SA Power Networks export and phase limits early.
SA Power Networks requires pre-approval before install on most residential jobs. Single-phase export is commonly discussed around a 10kW export ceiling historically — confirm the current rule for your NMI/street. Your installer should document the pathway for a 13.3kW system at Adelaide.
