Hepburn Springs

What Hepburn Springs needs from a system.

Hepburn Springs sits in the middle of the largest concentration of mineral springs in Australia, within the Wombat State Forest between Mount Franklin and Wombat Hill. A bushfire in 1906 led to much of the rebuilding in an Edwardian style, and Swiss Italian families shaped the village before that.

The result is a steep, treed village of small period houses and guesthouses, where a roof facing the wrong way is a real possibility. Where a house cannot take panels without compromise, an outbuilding or a carefully chosen section of roof may be the better answer, and any heritage overlay needs checking first.

Questions

Asked about solar in Hepburn Springs.

Does a heritage overlay stop me putting panels on a period cottage?
Not always, but it can change where they go and whether a permit is needed. We suggest checking the overlay with Hepburn Shire early, because panels hidden from the street are usually easier to approve than panels on the front slope.
What size solar system suits a home around Hepburn Springs?
The systems we have finished nearest to Hepburn Springs run from about 5.5 kW to 24 kW, and the middle of that is about 10 kW. Your bill and your roof set the real number.
What size battery suits a home near Hepburn Springs?
About 24 kWh is the middle of what we have fitted closest to Hepburn Springs, and the range goes from 5.5 kWh to 54 kWh. We work yours out from your evening and overnight use.
Do you work with single phase and three phase supply near Hepburn Springs?
Yes. Our recent jobs nearby include both, and the inverter is chosen to match the supply at your place.
Who handles the connection to the power network?
We do. The connection application is part of the job.
