What Auburn roofs are like
Auburn is largely a dense mix of older cottages, semis and newer townhouses. Where roof space is short, a smaller array plus a battery often beats chasing panel count.
That is why we do not quote a system size off a package name. We read twelve months of your usage, measure the useable roof rather than the total roof, and model the output face by face. You get the number and the assumptions behind it in writing.
What we install in Auburn
- Solar panel installation
Rooftop solar sized on your actual bills, installed by our own crew, with the price agreed in writing first.
- Home battery storage
Store what your roof makes during the day and use it at night, on a new system or fitted to the one you already have.
- System design & sizing
The part that decides whether your system was worth it, done on your usage and your roof before anything is ordered.
- Inverter replacement
The part that fails first, replaced without touching panels that are still doing their job.
- Service & maintenance
Checks, fault finding and repairs, including on systems we did not install and brands that have left the market.
- EV charger installation
A proper wall charger wired into your switchboard, set up to take what your roof is making rather than what the grid is selling.

What decides the job in Auburn
Roof area is the constraint, not the budget
On a dense block the limit is what will physically fit. Spending more does not add roof, so the sensible money goes into better panels and storage.
Semis and townhouses need the metering settled
Shared walls and shared services mean the connection has to be worked out before the array is designed.
Higher output panels earn their price here
Where you only get twelve panels on, it matters more than usual what those twelve panels are.

Solar in Auburn, common questions
The ones that come up on nearly every first call, answered straight.

My Auburn roof is small. Is solar still worth it?
Usually. A smaller array on a good face still covers a large share of daytime use, and pairing it with a battery does more for the bill than trying to squeeze on panels that face the wrong way.
Can I install on a townhouse in Auburn?
If the roof is yours rather than common property, and the metering allows it. Both are checked before we quote, because a system that cannot be connected is not a system.
Do you install in Auburn?
Yes. Auburn is inside our regular run across Parramatta and Western Sydney, and it is our own crew rather than a subcontractor. DSW Energy works under NSW electrical licence 497806C.
How much does it cost to install solar in Parramatta?
Our starting prices are $4,500 for a 6.6kW system and $8,500 for 10kW, for a standard single-storey install. What moves the number is the roof, not the postcode: two storeys, tile instead of sheet, a switchboard that needs upgrading, or an array split across several faces all add labour. We confirm the final figure in writing after a site assessment, so the price you accept is the price you pay.
Is there a solar rebate in NSW in 2026?
Not on panels, and that surprises people. There is no New South Wales rebate for rooftop solar. The discount you hear about is federal, it comes off the price as a point-of-sale deduction rather than a cheque you claim later, and every accredited installer in the state gets the same one. Batteries are different: a federal battery discount and a separate NSW incentive for connecting to a virtual power plant both apply, and they stack. We set out what you qualify for in writing with the quote, against the rules on the day.
What is the 33% rule for solar panels?
It is a rough guide that a solar system will typically cover around a third of a home's electricity use unless you change when you use power or add a battery. It is a reasonable sanity check on any sales pitch: if someone tells you panels alone will wipe out your whole bill, ask them to show you the numbers behind it. Shifting your washing, dishwasher and pool pump into daylight hours does more than most people expect, and a battery is what moves you past it properly.
Why do some people get rid of their solar panels?
Usually one of three reasons, and none of them is that solar stopped working. Systems installed a decade ago are reaching the end of their inverter life and get replaced rather than removed. Some were undersized for the household from the start and never delivered what was promised. And some were installed badly by companies that are no longer trading, which is the strongest argument for choosing an installer who will still be there in ten years. Panels themselves usually outlast everything else on the roof.
