Guildford
What Guildford needs from a system.
Guildford sits on the Loddon River between Daylesford and Castlemaine. Its Big Tree, a river red gum on the corner of two streets, is estimated to be more than 500 years old, and an avenue of London plane trees was planted in 1919 to honour local servicemen. The Guildford Banjo Jamboree brings string bands in September.
In the 1850s this area held what is said to be the largest Chinese miners' encampment in Victoria, and the hotel dates from the same decade. Today it is a small village of period houses and rural blocks, where the questions are the usual ones for old houses: what is on the switchboard and which roof has the sun.

Questions
Asked about solar in Guildford.
- Can I add a battery to solar I already have?
- Often yes. Depending on the inverter, you add a compatible battery to the existing system or swap to a hybrid inverter. We look at the age and type of your current inverter before suggesting which way to go.
- What size solar should I be looking at in Guildford?
- Nearby, we have installed anything from 6.5 kW to 24 kW, with about 9 kW in the middle. The right size for you comes from your bill and your roof.
- What battery sizes have you installed near Guildford?
- Anything from 16 kWh to 54 kWh on recent jobs nearby, with about 24 kWh most typical. Your evening and overnight use sets the size.
- Who handles the connection to the power network?
- We do. The connection application is part of the job.
