What Does "Tier 1" Really Mean?
"Tier 1" is a classification system created by BloombergNEF that rates panel manufacturers on financial strength, bankability, and large project delivery history.
While Tier-1 status is a valuable indicator that a company has the financial stability to honor long-term warranties, it is not an automatic guarantee of module performance or build quality. That is why Supreme Solar Power also evaluates independent laboratory testing, degradation rates, local Australian warranty support offices, and field reliability.
Solar Panel Warranties Explained
Covers physical manufacturing defects, materials, framing, and junction box durability. Provided by the manufacturer.
Guarantees that power output does not degrade faster than stated limits (typically retaining ~84% to 88% output at 25–30 years).
Covers roof mounting, wiring, isolators, and installer craft. Provided directly by Supreme Solar Power.
Monocrystalline vs Polycrystalline
Almost all modern residential and commercial solar panels are monocrystalline. Monocrystalline cells are manufactured from single-crystal silicon, delivering higher efficiency, superior low-light performance, and a sleek black aesthetic. Older polycrystalline technology is rarely used in quality installations today.
North-Facing vs East/West Roofs
In Queensland and Northern NSW, north-facing panels generate the highest total kilowatt-hours across an entire year. However, split east-and-west arrays are often advantageous because they generate peak power in the morning and late afternoon when household electricity demand is highest. We model your exact roof geometry during quoting.
Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Cost, Rebates & Tariffs
A typical home system price depends on system size, quality of panels and inverter, roof type, and switchboard condition. All prices reflect the upfront Small-scale Technology Certificate (STC) discount. We provide a transparent, fixed written quote after assessing your property.
There is no cash payment sent to you. Eligible solar systems receive Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs), which are applied directly as an upfront discount on your quote. The number of STCs depends on your system size, geographical zone, and installation date.
Payback depends on your energy consumption, electricity tariff, upfront net system cost, and what percentage of power you use during daylight hours. We provide a tailored payback estimate with clear documented assumptions rather than unrealistic generic claims.
Feed-in tariffs are set by individual electricity retailers (not solar installers) and change periodically. We recommend comparing retailers using the Australian Government's Energy Made Easy comparison tool to maximize your feed-in return.
Your distribution network operator (Energex in South East QLD or Ergon Energy in regional QLD) may place limits on how much surplus solar electricity can be exported to the grid (commonly 5kW per phase). We verify and factor these network limits directly into your system engineering.
