We’ve done the hard work to find great quality solar and battery packages, with top warranties, so you don’t have to.
Following an extensive process, City of Newcastle, Lake Macquarie City Council and Maitland City Council selected 1KOMMA5˚ to deliver Solar Neighbourhoods, supported by a network of trusted Hunter tradies.
We’ve already completed step one of getting solar and done the hard work to find great quality solar and battery packages and brands, so you don’t have to.
We’ve secured special pricing and quality products with leading warranties. Including an exclusive $1,250 rebate for Newcastle, Lake Macquarie and Maitland residents.
Now you just need to decide – do you want solar, battery or both? Or do you need a bit of help deciding what’s right for your home (just send an enquiry and we’ll help)? Plus would you prefer to pay upfront or as you go with the savings from your new system. The choice is yours!
Once you’ve checked out the packages – fill out the form and tell us what package you like.
We’ve pre-selected great quality brands, products and add-ons, with market leading warranties. Solar, battery or both – you decide.
Simply fill out the form to register your interest and tell us what standard package appeals to you (we’ll then tailor the package to your home and energy needs).
The friendly team at 1KOMMA5˚ will be in touch to lock in a time that suits you — phone, email or an in-person visit, whatever you prefer. They’ll get to know your home and how you use energy, then answer any questions you’ve got. No jargon, no pressure.
To get things moving, just have a recent electricity bill and a photo of your meter box handy.
Got a tricky roof, tight space, or an older switchboard? You may benefit from a free site inspection with a qualified installer – just ask.
Next, 1KOMMA5˚ will tailor one of our packages for your home. You’ll get a clear, personalised quote outlining your new system and the price, minus all the rebates. If any additional repairs or electrical work is needed to ensure your new system is safe and compliant, 1KOMMA5˚ will let you know.
Happy with the plan? Your installation will be booked and performed by trusted Hunter tradies. Most systems are installed within three months, depending on demand. While you wait, the team will handle everything behind the scenes, like grid connections and paperwork. They will make your install easy-to-understand and hassle-free. Plus keep you up to date every step of the way. Before long, you’ll be joining your neighbours and powering your home with the sun.

Solar Neighbourhoods saved me time and effort.

Council vetting the provider and products gave us the confidence to finally go ahead.
We’d been considering solar and a battery for a while but researching products and installers was time consuming and it was difficult to get a handle on the best options. The $1,250 discount and knowing Council had vetted the provider and products made the decision easy. 1KOMMA5 delivered excellent service with quality products and friendly, professional installers, and the difference to our bills, and our awareness of our power use through the app was more or less instant. Solar Neighbourhoods is a great practical initiative that has genuinely benefited our household and helped us take a tangible action that helps the environment.
The installation was smooth, professional and very well communicated.
The whole Solar Neighbourhoods process has been great. The team at 1KOMMA5 gave me all the information I needed to make an informed decision. The installation was smooth, professional and very well communicated. I’m really happy with the result and confident this will have a positive environmental impact. I’d thoroughly encourage others to join the program. It’s good for you and the planet.
