SolarAide recently completed a residential solar installation in Lilydale, Victoria, combining a large 19.95kW solar system with 41.93kWh of battery storage. The system was designed for a single-storey residential property with a tiled roof and is connected to the electricity grid.
19.95kW Solar System in Lilydale
The installation includes 42 Risen Energy 475W solar panels, delivering a total system capacity of 19.95kW.
The system was designed to provide substantial daytime solar generation and reduce reliance on electricity from the grid. The panels were installed using a flush mounting configuration suited to the property’s existing tiled roof.
Solar system specifications
- System size: 19.95kW
- Solar panels: 42
- Panel brand: Risen Energy
- Panel model: RSM96-11-475BNDG
- Panel output: 475W each
- Property type: Residential
- Roof type: Concrete tile / terracotta
- Mounting: Flush-mounted

41.93kWh Solar Battery Installation
To complement the solar system, SolarAide installed a 41.93kWh Fox ESS battery system, giving the property substantial energy storage capacity for greater use of solar energy beyond daylight hours.
The battery system consists of nine Fox ESS EQ4800 battery units, providing a total usable and nominal capacity of 41.93kWh.
This combination of solar generation and battery storage allows the household to store excess daytime solar energy and use it later when solar production is lower.
