Solar panel installation
We design and install grid-tied solar panel systems tailored to residential and commercial energy needs. Our systems use high-efficiency panels from brands like Jinko, REC, and SunPower to maximise energy production. Clients benefit from reduced electricity bills, eligibility for government rebates, and long-term energy independence.
Battery storage systems
Battery storage solutions allow clients to store excess solar energy for use during nighttime or power outages. We offer Tesla Powerwall, SolarEdge, and Enphase batteries, ensuring reliable backup power and increased self-sufficiency while optimising return on investment.
EV charging solutions
We install smart EV charging stations that integrate with solar systems to utilise renewable energy for vehicle charging. Compatible models include Tesla Gen 3, Fronius Wattpilot, and MyEnergi Zappi, reducing charging costs and extending battery lifespan.
Heat pump installation
Our iStore heat pumps provide energy-efficient hot water solutions by harnessing ambient heat. Designed to work with solar systems, they reduce energy consumption by up to two-thirds, offering cost savings and environmental benefits for households.
Solar system design
We conduct property surveys to design custom solar systems based on energy usage, roof space, and future needs. Our process includes detailed modelling and rebate assessments to ensure optimal system performance and financial viability.

Christian and Jo provided excellent advice and service all the way through. They responded to all my calls, texts, and emails. Their quote was easy to understand and included all the costs. Installation was smooth and completed within a day. Although the application process can take some time if seeking government rebates, as we were, they did their best to schedule an approximate date and in fact ended up installing the system more than a week earlier than expected. The follow up processes, including the visit by the electrical inspector and submission of follow up paperwork to my electricity

Great team to deal with. Very professional in the installation. Purchased a 7.7 KW system due to split array, two different locations and directions.
Was hoping to get around 6.0 KW due to orientation. Consistently getting mid 5.0 KW plus. Just waiting on Energy provider now to configure Meter for input credits. PS have referred Christian and his team to two other friends.

From start to finish Linked Solar has been fantastic to deal with. They worked with our budget, had excellent communication so that the whole process felt smooth and easy, and happily answered our millions of questions along the way. Installers were punctual and lovely, and the director of the company was here for installation, which we appreciated. Was also reassuring to hear from the independent inspector who came after installation that 'these guys always do good work'. Would highly recommend!
