From older homes in town to properties out in the Tweed Valley, JA Electrical & Solar designs solar and battery systems for Murwillumbah homes around how each household actually uses power.
Every system is individually designed, professionally installed and backed by ongoing local support from our Tweed Heads West team.

We've installed solar and batteries for Murwillumbah homeowners on both tin and tiled roofs, including premium REC panels with a Fronius Reserva battery. Valley homes can get morning fog and shading from hills and trees, so we look at your roof and usage on site before recommending a system. Every one of our solar panel installations, Murwillumbah included, is designed, installed and commissioned by our team.
Solar in Murwillumbah: rebates & network connection
Most solar panel installations, Murwillumbah included, qualify for Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) under the federal Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme, which typically cuts around 30% off the upfront cost of a new system as an instant point-of-sale discount rather than a rebate you claim later. Murwillumbah falls in STC Zone 3, and like the rest of the scheme the certificate value steps down every year on the way to a full phase-out by 2030 — so a system installed today earns more certificates than the same system installed in a couple of years, all else equal.
Murwillumbah is connected to the Essential Energy network, and we lodge your connection application directly with them as part of the installation, so there's no separate paperwork on your end. Because the exact STC value depends on your system size and the certificate price on the day, we show it as a line item on your actual quote rather than a generic estimate — rebate rules do change, so we always confirm current eligibility before you commit.
Homeowners in Murwillumbah may be eligible for the federal Cheaper Home Batteries Program, which has applied to eligible battery installations between 5 and 100kWh since 1 July 2025. It works the same way as the solar STC scheme — it generates certificates that reduce your battery's upfront cost as an instant discount, rather than a rebate you claim after the fact, with the exact figure depending on your battery's capacity and the certificate price on the day.
If you're adding a battery to an existing solar system, that system may still be earning STCs of its own on top. Murwillumbah sits on the Essential Energy network, and we handle the connection paperwork for the battery as part of the installation. Because program details and certificate values can change, we confirm your current eligibility and show the exact discount on your itemised quote before you commit to anything.
