| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| 3kW — daily | 15.0 kWh/day |
| 3kW — annual | 5,475 kWh/year |
Using 5 peak sun hours as a planning figure for Canberra, a 3kW array can produce about 15.0 kWh/day and ~5,475 kWh/year. North vs east-west layouts, shade and inverter clipping change real results — insist on a site assessment.
STCs apply (typically Zone 3). Next Gen storage program context can support battery decisions. FiTs often quoted around 7–11c/kWh depending on retailer — still usually less valuable than self-consumption. Indicative 6.6kW after STC often $5,200–$7,800. For Zone 3, MrSolar’s master table (spot $39.85 as of 2026-08-05) points to about $638 in STCs for a comparable residential size class. Indicative installed pricing still varies widely with roof complexity.
Smaller Tuggeranong homes with modest daytime loads, apartments with limited roof, or households building toward a later battery often start near 3kW.
Evoenergy manages ACT connections. Dual-occupancy, unit titles and heritage conditions are more common blockers than irradiance. Your installer should document the pathway for a 3kW system at Tuggeranong.
