Solar & battery in Kyneton

Kyneton's older centre means the design question is as much about how it looks as what it produces.

Heritage streetscapes, and panels you'd rather not see from the road.

What actually matters in Kyneton

A lot of Kyneton's housing is old and the streetscape is part of why people live there. Heritage overlays are common through the older parts of town, and where they apply they can affect what's acceptable on a street-facing roof. That's worth checking before a design is finalised rather than after.

Even where there's no overlay, plenty of owners simply don't want an array visible from the street. All-black panels help, and so does a layout that works the rear and side roof planes harder. It usually costs some output — we'll tell you how much rather than quietly designing around it.

Older homes here also tend to have older boards, and often a heating setup that's part wood, part gas. Electrifying that is a bigger conversation than just adding panels, and worth having properly.
