In addition to the Residential Solar PV Price Index that Solar Choice publishes monthly, we also publish pricing data for commercial systems (10kW, 30kW, 50kW and 100kW). This article contains pricing data for October 2014.
All figures include GST as well as the STC incentive available through Australia’s federal Renewable Energy Target. According to the data in our STCs contributed an effective system discount of approximately $0.60-0.70 per watt of installed capacity.

About this data
Tables and charts included in this article were compiled using data from Solar Choice’s installer network database, which contains regularly-updated pricing and product details from over 100 solar installation companies across Australia. Prices do not ordinarily incorporate meter installation fees or additional costs, such as ground-mounting or grid connection studies. The discount available to Solar Choice customers is also excluded from calculations, as are prices for ‘premium’ installer offerings. Median high and median low prices are the arithmetic averages taken from the range of high and low prices on offer across cities for each system size.
