Echuca & Moama · zone 3 · we install what we quote
A $780 Echuca bill is usually a 10 kW job. We put a number on it, then we check the roof.
Trina, GoodWe, Sigenergy, Fronius. STCs assigned on the invoice. Solar Victoria paperwork handled. SAA accredited. REC 3023 / 355711C. Not a partner crew.

SEC Services
Nine questions. A real starting number.
First, how do we reach you? We call the same morning — 7:30 am if it is after hours.
Code SEC500 is $500 off eligible solar / battery until 31 Dec 2026 · 122 days left. One code per household.
Four starting packs. The visit confirms the board.
Prices on the cards are after federal STCs. Battery discount applies where you size storage. Board upgrades on their own line.

What we hang
EHB, RUNNUR tray, Lynx F G2.
Hybrid on the wall. Stack on the floor, hard against the plaster. Clenergy RUNNUR tray out the side of the inverter — not a pipe out the bottom. 22.4 kWh is seven modules plus the PCU.
Battery optionsHow people pay
The money conversation, on the quote.
Nobody should leave a kitchen-table meeting guessing. Cash, a loan, or NSW finance if you qualify — written, not verbal.
Pay the invoice
Most jobs. Deposit to lock stock, balance on commissioning. Price holds 14 days.
Bank or green loan
Your lender. We give you a written quote they can actually read — STCs already assigned.
NSW interest-free
Moama, Deniliquin, Mathoura, Barham, Finley — where you qualify. Confirmed on the quote. We do not advertise $0-upfront we cannot honour.
Neighbours close neighbours
Refer a house. You both get $500 off solar and battery.
Battery-only is $250 each. Mention the name when they enquire. This is how most of our work arrives — not ads.
Cost
Generate your own power. The feed-in is 6 c; using it at 32 c is the point.
Independence
A battery covers the evening. The grid covers the rest. That is the honest pitch.
Rebates
STCs assigned on the invoice. Solar Vic and the battery discount where you qualify.
One crew
Design, board, roof, CoES. Not a sales desk that books a partner.
VIC or NSW — we stack what actually applies.
Same crew both sides of the river. Different paperwork. We calculate the stack on your quote so you are not left with a portal login and a prayer.
Victoria · Powercor
Echuca, Kyabram, Rochester, Tongala, Cohuna
- Federal STCs. Five years of deeming in 2026. Zone 3. Assigned on the invoice.
- Solar Vic — up to $1,400. Household taxable income under $150k. We prepare the application.
- VEECs. Typically $1,000–$3,500 off eligible heat-pump hot water.
- SEC500. $500 off eligible solar / battery to 31 Dec 2026.
Shown on the quote. You do not chase the paperwork.
NSW · Essential Energy
Moama, Deniliquin
- Federal STCs. Same certificates, same zone 3. No Solar Vic on this bank.
- Home-energy finance. Interest-free pathway where you qualify — confirmed on the quote, never advertised as $0 upfront.
- Export limits. Essential Energy, written on the quote. NSW licence 355711C.
- SEC500. Still applies on eligible solar / battery.
Same crew. Different network. We do not mix the two up.
Certificates, not a countdown clock
PV deeming is five years in 2026. Four from 1 January 2027.
Nobody is switching the scheme off next week. What is true: each year the federal STCs on a new array shrink. Battery discount already tapers after 14 kWh. Waiting does not beat that maths. We write the certificates on the invoice.
How it works
01
Consultation
Usage, roof, goals. A board photo now means no surprise on install day.
02
Design
Layout, kit and rebate maths on one page. Vic or NSW path, not a portal homework sheet.
03
Install
Our electricians. One to two days on a standard house.
04
Commissioning
Tested, grid connected, Certificate of Electrical Safety.
05
Aftercare
Monitoring if you want it. The same number when the app blinks amber.
Typically two to four weeks from accepted quote to installation.
The visit
Have these ready. The sale happens on the roof.
Last quarterly bill
Usage is the size. A photo of the bill is enough.
Board photo
Fuses or RCDs — we tell you before we order kit.
Both decision-makers
If it is a joint account, both people on the 45 minutes.
Evening loads
A/C, EV, pool, when the house actually draws. That sizes the battery.
Who designs. Who installs. Who comes back.
Who designs
SEC. Usage, roof, board. Not a catalogue.
Who installs
SEC electricians. Sometimes other local brands book us as the partner. If you come here, there is no second company.
Who comes back
The same number. Lifetime workmanship on the labour. Manufacturer warranty on the kit.
Batteries
Cheaper Home Batteries, after May 2026
First 14 kWh at full rate, then 60%, then 15%. Not a flat $370 anymore.
$3,914
103 STCs · about $245/kWh effective · indicative out-of-pocket $11,286–$16,086
Rebate per kWh is highest at ≤14 kWh. Bigger than 28 kWh is mostly backup, not subsidy.

What that quarterly $ actually means
We invert the bill at 32 c/kWh. Supply charge is stripped so the usage is honest.
11.7 kWh/day
Suggested array 6.6 kW · $1,800–$2,400/yr. Export at ~5 c is pocket change; using that kWh at night at 32 c is the battery argument.
Prefill the builder2026 clock
Install this year vs wait
PV deeming drops from 5 years to 4 on 1 Jan 2027. Battery STC factor 6.8 → 5.7. Hardware may still get cheaper — this clock is only the certificate side.

- The same phone number you already have
The questions that actually stall a sale
SEC electricians. Other local solar brands will sell you a system and send a partner — sometimes that partner is us. If you come here, there is no second company. Design, board, roof, CoES: one crew.
