Solar installation in Pottsville
Pottsville's grown from sleepy fishing village to one of the Tweed Coast's busiest family suburbs and all those new rooftops are sitting under serious sun. Designed and installed by a licensed local electrician, not a sales rep.

We know Pottsville roofs, because we're on them
Pottsville sits in the same premium solar zone as the rest of the Tweed Coast, and the suburb's growth spurt means a high share of newer homes big modern rooflines, decent orientation, tin that's easy to work with. Good bones for solar.
What actually shapes a Pottsville system is how the home gets used. Family homes here run hard in the evenings (kids, aircon, the lot) which is a very different sizing job to a holiday let that sits near-empty on weekdays with panels exporting for cents. Same street, opposite solar maths. One needs a system (often with a battery) built around the evening peak; the other needs honest advice about whether max export or a smaller right-sized array makes more sense.
A one-size package quoted off a satellite photo treats both houses identically, and gets both wrong. We've installed on the Tweed Coast for 20 years, we ask how the place is actually lived in before we size anything, and the electrician who quotes it leads the install.

What Northern Rivers Locals Say
"We had a 10kW system paired with a Tesla Powerwall installed, and the power bill savings were immediate. The setup looks sleek on the roof, and the battery gives us total peace of mind. Couldn't be happier with the equipment and installation!"
Mark T
"Coxy's service was amazing throughout the entire process. He was super professional, took the time to explain everything clearly, and actually felt trustworthy unlike some of the other solar companies I had been quoted by who felt like they just wanted a quick sale."
Sarah M.
"First call with Coxy was great, he was very knowledgable. Install process was smooth and fast. Couldn't recommend Coxy and the team more!"

It's a holiday house that's empty half the week, is solar even worth it?
It can be, but the sizing logic flips. With low weekday usage you're exporting most of what you make for a small feed-in return, so an oversized array is wasted money. We'll size for your actual occupancy pattern — and show you whether a battery or a smaller system gets the better return. Sometimes the honest answer is "smaller than you expected."
How close to the beach counts as needing salt-rated gear?
Basically all of Pottsville. You're within a couple of kilometres of the surf everywhere in the suburb, so we spec marine-grade racking and fixings as standard here, it's not an optional extra we upsell, it's just what a coastal install should be.
Do you handle the Essential Energy paperwork?
Yes. Any system over 5kW needs a network connection application with Essential Energy, and we lodge the lot, you don't chase forms.
