Join over a million Aussies that have switched to solar.
our
story
As more Australians households encounter rising electricity bills and shortages, we took it upon ourselves to help in the best possible way – providing a cleaner, greener source of energy that is just 1/5th the cost of traditional electricity!
That’s how Time 4 Solar was born.
Since our launch in 2018, Time 4 Solar has been at the forefront of providing and installing rooftop solar to homes across Victoria.
Our mission is simple…
To provide cost-effective energy saving solutions to homes across Australia and help eradicate the energy crisis.

Most frequent questions and answers
Most likely, YES. Off-grid solar systems with battery backup can produce zero electricity bills. A solar system can help you reduce your electricity bill and in many instances by a significant amount, if you use the electricity at the time it is created. This helps you to offset your consumption which you would have otherwise paid for. The bigger the system the more likely it will be that more solar power is generated than is used and the excess will be fed back into the grid.
To expand your solar system, the best and most robust option is to get a second, independent system installed instead of extending an existing one. With extension comes a load of complications like the inverter capacity and solar panel compatibility. Adding new panels to some old existing system will inhibit the performance of the new panels. With a new system, you will have the guarantee and the piece of mind of it working without any problems.
For a general cleaning, simply use a standard garden hose to wash the face of the panels during either the early morning or in the evening. Avoid spraying cold water onto hot panels or you could risk cracking them! Some Companies offers solar panel cleaning services where you can get some professional cleaners. This is a better choice for panels that are too high to reach well with a garden hose or if you want a more thorough cleaning. Standard solar panel maintenance is the best way to make sure they are always producing efficiently.
The Renewable Energy Target (RET) is the main driver of rebates at the Federal level, these take the form of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). This rebate for solar installations is available anywhere in Australia. RECs come in 2 forms: Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) for renewable energy generators up to 100 kilowatts (kW), and Large-scale Generation Certificates (LGCs) for systems whose capacity is greater than 100kW.
Depending on the panels, this could be an issue. We use the highest quality Tier 1 panels which have been tested and used in all weather conditions. We will only recommend panels that are proven in low light conditions and have shown to offer a bigger spectral response.
