Professional solar and battery installations

Panels are the instantly recognisable heroes of the solar power story. Sitting on rooftops across Australia, the role of our panels is to use their monocrystalline or multicrystalline cells inside to generate power from the sun’s rays - power that can either be consumed immediately or stored in a battery for later use. Plico uses some of the most popular solar panels in Australia due to their efficiency, quality and affordable price. 

Like our 'panel' of experts always say, “Without a battery you’re wasting your energy.” They’re right. Batteries are the vital mechanism by which you can store the excess energy your panels generate, to then be used 24/7. Unlike some comparable products on the market, our batteries have undergone years of rigorous testing and are composed of lithium-ion phosphate for maximum security, they also talk directly to your energy monitoring app so you can track your energy generation and usage. (How smart is that?).

Our batteries are equipped with blackout protection to keep the lights on when the grid is down, allowing you to utilise your stored energy independently of the grid.

Plico doesn’t just use an inverter, we use a smart hybrid inverter paired with the DC-coupled battery so the power you generate doesn’t need to be converted into AC straight away. And given the Saharan-type heat we experience here in Australia, we’ve made sure to only use locally designed inverters that have been specifically engineered to work effectively in our harsh, dry climate. When you pair Plico’s inverter with your solar panels and battery, you have a smart, energy independent system set up and ready to go! One that allows you to monitor, control and optimise your energy use at any time, day or night.

We also have non-hybrid, AC-coupled systems available in some locations. This system works with your existing solar inverter and panels, and is an easy retrofit if you have panels that are only a few years old. 

When you join Plico you also join our innovative, community-first VPP! Being part of the Plico VPP means you can earn VPP Rewards for the excess energy in your battery. You're never worse off and you don't have to do anything for your system to be engaged in VPP events. Just another way you get more value from your battery investment. 

Find out more about how the VPP works and how you can earn VPP Rewards. 

Every Plico system is connected to an energy monitoring app, which allows you to see how your system is performing. Be warned. Many Plico Members become 'addicted' to their energy app!

Real-time energy data at your fingertips helps you make the most of your clean energy. 

You don't need an engineering degree to understand our technology. It's simple, straightforward and backed by a local team. Have a question about how it works? Concerned about system performance? Ongoing support is included with every Plico system, so you always have someone to call if you need to. From warranty claims to technical support, we have your back.
