positive change
Despite an abundance of sunshine hours, so little of the Earth's energy requirements is generated from solar power. It's there for us every day, it's free, and it’s far better for our environment than traditional fossil fuel resources.
Solar Calculator is here to help Australian households take advantage of solar energy. We provide the tools you need to make an informed decision and reduce your carbon emissions.
Our model
Solar Calculator is an independently-owned business that exists for one reason: to help reduce household emissions.
Our installers
Purchasing solar can be a big decision, but we’re here to make it easier. That’s why we do the hard yards finding the best installers for your needs.
We’re fussy about the installers that we arrange to provide quotes. In fact, we decline over 75% of all installers that wish to join our partner program.
We analyse each company's installation practices, warranties, pricing, product quality, CEC accreditation, and time in business. When you source quotes through us, we match you with the companies best suited to your requirements.
At the end of the day, we're here to help you achieve a quality system that saves you money and reduces your emissions.

Our story
Michael Henderson founded Solar Calculator in 2015. When switching his own home to solar, he struggled to find reliable information on the costs, savings, and benefits. So he decided to create a go-to resource for other people in the same boat.
Based in Melbourne, Solar Calculator was founded to provide unbiased and accurate information for all Australians seeking a positive change.
Today, it has evolved into a comprehensive suite of tools and resources, with regular updates and new content.
Our mission remains steadfast: to be a reliable resource that helps Australians move away from traditional fossil fuels and embrace a greener lifestyle.
We’ve helped over 20,512
