Ingham and Hinchinbrook
Solar and battery installation in Ingham and Hinchinbrook Our own licensed team, from Townsville.
We install solar and batteries in Ingham and around the Hinchinbrook area, using our own licensed team. We drive up the Bruce Highway from our Garbutt base.
Local conditions
Wet season, storms and long power lines.
Ingham and the Hinchinbrook area are greener and wetter than Townsville. Solar still produces through the wet, and cyclone country means systems need to be built and fitted for it. See our cyclone-ready guide.
Storms can mean outages. A grid-connected system without backup switches off in a blackout, so if that worries you, ask about a battery set up for backup.
Rural properties on single-wire (SWER) lines often have lower export limits. Our Ergon page explains how limits are set for each address.

Yes. We are based at Garbutt in Townsville, and our own licensed team travels to Ingham and the Hinchinbrook area. Tell us your address and we will confirm we can get to you.
02Do I need Ergon approval in Ingham?
Yes. Ergon approval is needed before installation, and we lodge the application for you. Export limits are set for each address.

Only if the system is set up for backup. A grid-connected system without backup switches off in a blackout, so tell us if blackouts are your main worry.
