Estimate Your Perth Solar Savings
Have your latest Synergy bill ready. The calculator is best suited to a Perth home without an existing solar system and using a standard residential Synergy plan.
How much could solar reduce your Synergy bill?
Enter your latest Synergy bill and answer a few simple questions. We will provide an indicative solar size and savings range for a Perth home.
Tell us about your household
This calculator assumes a standard 62-day Synergy billing period.
Important information about this estimate
This calculator is intended for a home without existing solar and uses a standard 62-day Synergy bill, the Synergy Home Plan A1 supply and usage charges, broad Perth solar production assumptions and an indicative range for solar self-consumption and exports. Homes with existing solar, Midday Saver, EV tariffs or other plans require a more detailed assessment.
The results are general estimates only. They are not a quotation, final system recommendation, savings guarantee or assessment of technical suitability. Actual results depend on your tariff, interval usage, roof layout, shading, panel placement, inverter capacity, switchboard, export limits, system losses and household behaviour.
Australis Solar designs each system around your actual home. We assess your Synergy bill, energy use, roof, shading, existing equipment, backup requirements and future battery or EV plans before recommending a solution.
What This Solar Calculator Considers
A useful solar estimate needs more than a bill total. These inputs help show how much electricity you may use, when solar can offset that usage and what may affect production.
Your Synergy Bill
The calculator uses your standard 62-day bill to estimate household electricity consumption after allowing for the daily supply charge.
Usage Timing
Daytime, mixed and evening usage profiles affect how much solar may be used directly in the home instead of exported.
Roof and Shade
Roof direction and shading can change annual production, panel placement and the final system layout.
Future Electricity Use
A pool, additional air conditioning, an EV or broader home electrification can justify designing for higher future demand.
From Online Estimate to a Tailored Solar Design
The calculator gives you a practical starting range. Australis Solar then confirms what is technically suitable, what will fit your roof and how the system should be configured for your actual energy goals.
Complete the calculator
Use your latest Synergy bill and select the answers that most closely match your home, roof and future plans.
Send your bill and property details
Provide your address, bill, existing equipment details and whether you are considering solar only, battery storage, backup or EV charging.
Receive a property-specific design
Australis Solar reviews the roof layout, shading, switchboard, system compatibility, likely production and the practical options for your home.
What Australis Solar assesses
- Synergy bill and usage data
- Roof space and orientations
- Shading and panel layout
- Existing inverter or solar
- Switchboard condition
- Battery installation location
- Backup circuit requirements
- Future EV charging needs
Why Your Final Solar Design May Differ From the Calculator
Bill totals are useful, but they cannot show every technical or behavioural detail. The final recommendation should be based on how your home actually uses electricity and what can be installed safely and compliantly.
The calculator is a good starting point when:
- You do not currently have solar installed.
- Your bill covers a normal residential billing period.
- You can broadly identify daytime and evening usage.
- Your main goal is understanding a likely solar size and saving range.
- You want an initial estimate before discussing equipment or pricing.
A tailored assessment is particularly important when:
- You already have solar, a battery or a hybrid inverter.
- You use a time-of-use, EV or non-standard tariff.
- Your roof has complex orientations or significant shade.
- You are planning a battery, blackout backup or EV charging.
- Your switchboard, supply or proposed system requires an upgrade.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about using the Australis Solar savings calculator for a Perth home.
What does the solar savings calculator estimate?
It estimates household electricity usage, a potentially suitable solar capacity range, annual solar production, possible annual savings and a potential percentage bill reduction. Every result is a broad assessment rather than a final design.
Is the calculator result a solar quote?
No. It does not include final equipment selection, installation pricing, roof design, switchboard work, network approval or a technical site assessment. Australis Solar confirms those details before providing a tailored quote.
Why does the calculator use a 62-day Synergy bill?
The tool is designed around a typical Synergy residential billing period. It separates an allowance for the daily supply charge, then uses the remaining bill amount to estimate electricity consumption.
Can I use it if my home already has solar?
The calculator is best suited to homes without existing solar. Existing systems can change imports, exports and bill totals, so Australis Solar should assess your inverter, panel capacity, monitoring data and upgrade goals directly.
Can I use it with a time-of-use or EV electricity tariff?
You can use the tool for a broad indication, but non-standard tariffs need a tailored assessment. The value of solar may change depending on import rates, export rates, charging times and when major appliances operate.
Does roof direction make a major difference in Perth?
Roof direction affects when and how much energy a system produces. North-facing areas may support strong total output, while east and west layouts can spread production across more of the day. Shading, pitch and usable roof area also matter.
Should I allow for a future EV, pool or battery?
Yes. Future loads can materially increase electricity use. Planning for them early can improve panel layout, inverter selection, switchboard preparation and the ability to add a battery or EV charger later.
What information should I send for a tailored solar assessment?
Send a recent Synergy bill, the property address, your main energy goal, details of any existing solar equipment and whether you are considering battery storage, blackout backup or EV charging. Switchboard and inverter photos are also useful where available.
