Maitland NSW
Elite Power Group install solar, battery storage and EV charging systems for homes and businesses across Ashtonfield, East Maitland, Largs, Bolwarra, Aberglasslyn and the surrounding Maitland area.
We operate from Thornton, which puts us close to Ashtonfield and the broader Maitland region as a regular part
of our schedule. Every system is designed and installed by our own SAA-accredited team, and we have been working across this part of
the Hunter long enough to know it well.
Ashtonfield Solar Installer
Our SAA-accredited team designs and installs solar PV systems and battery storage for homes and businesses throughout Ashtonfield and the wider Maitland area. Ashtonfield's generous block sizes, level land, and predominantly north-facing rooflines make it one of the more straightforward and well-suited solar environments we work in. Every system is sized to your household, not a default package.
We install leading brands including Tesla Powerwall 3, Sungrow SBR/SBH, and Fronius Reserva, with a range of options to suit different budgets, household sizes, and energy goals across the Ashtonfield area.
Areas we service include Ashtonfield, East Maitland, Largs, Bolwarra, Aberglasslyn, Telarah and surrounding suburbs within the City of Maitland LGA.
Helping support the renewable energy transition in Ashtonfield & surrounds, below are some projects we've completed.

We Know What Ashtonfield Properties Need: Ashtonfield was designed from the ground up as a master-planned community, and it shows. The blocks are larger than average, the land is predominantly level, and the homes are four and five-bedroom family houses with plenty of usable roof space. That is a genuinely good starting point for solar. Our team designs systems that take full advantage of what these properties offer, and we have done enough Maitland-area jobs to know the local construction standards well.
A Community That Takes Long-Term Investment Seriously: With 77.7% of homes owner-occupied and a median household income of $2,148 per week, Ashtonfield is a suburb of established professionals who think carefully before spending. Solar and battery storage is exactly the kind of long-term investment that suits that mindset. The payback is real, the system lasts decades, and the Federal Battery Rebate has made the combined solar and storage conversation considerably more accessible than it was a few years ago.
In-House Team, Every Time: Our Ashtonfield installations are carried out entirely by our own SAA-accredited, directly employed team. We do not outsource to subcontractors, and we do not vary our standards depending on the job or the suburb. The people who design your system are the same people who install it.
For Ashtonfield homeowners, the case for solar is uncomplicated. Large homes with four and five bedrooms, above-average block sizes, and
level land that rarely produces the shading complications that sloped or constrained properties can present. A well-sized system on an
Ashtonfield home generates well and reduces quarterly bills in a way you can see clearly from the first invoice. Battery storage makes the
evening hours productive too, carrying solar generation through the peak-rate window when the household is home and drawing the most power.
Established Professional Households: a suburb that values quality and expects its investments to perform. We design systems accordingly.
Above-Average Block Sizes: Ashtonfield's level, generous blocks produce fewer shading and access complications than denser urban environments.
Federal Battery Rebate Available: eligible Ashtonfield homeowners can put a meaningful discount toward battery storage upfront.
Proximity to Green Hills Precinct: commercial solar for businesses in the Stockland Green Hills and East Maitland corridor is part of our regular workload.
Our team services Ashtonfield, Metford, Louth Park, and East Maitland as a regular part of our Maitland operations - being based Thornton.
Residential solar PV systems designed for Ashtonfield's large family homes, with generous roof areas and level blocks that suit well-sized, high-performing installations. Panels from JA Solar, Trina and TW Solar with inverters from Fronius, Sungrow and GoodWe.
Tesla Powerwall 3, Sungrow SBR/SBH, Fronius Reserva and GoodWe ESA systems across Ashtonfield and the surrounding Maitland area. The Federal Battery Rebate is available to eligible homeowners and changes what is possible upfront. Worth looking into before you make any assumptions about cost.
For medical facilities, professional services, retail and other commercial operations in the Ashtonfield and East Maitland precinct, we design and install commercial solar systems at all scales. SAA-accredited with Ausgrid connection management handled in-house.
For rural and semi-rural properties across the broader Maitland LGA where grid access is limited or unreliable, we design standalone solar and battery systems built to meet full energy requirements independently.
Home and commercial EV charger installations across Ashtonfield and surrounds, including options from Fronius Wattpilot, Ocular IQ, Tesla Wall Connector and Wallbox Pulsar Plus, integrated with your solar setup where applicable.
Heat pump and solar hot water systems suited to Ashtonfield's large family homes, where hot water is a significant part of the household energy load. Our licensed electricians also handle a broad range of residential and commercial electrical work across the Maitland LGA.
We install solar and battery components like Tesla Powerwall 3 and Sungrow batteries, as well as TW and Trina solar modules for completely reliable operation for the long-term. Explore the components we install below.
Offering between 3-20kW of solar inverter solutions, Fronius offer a range of inverter solutions for simple maintenance & operation.
Consisting of single and three-phase inverter options, Sungrow offer an all-new generation of solar inverter technology.
Gain premium solar energy generation with Trina solar PV modules, quality panels ready for installation.
TW offer cost-effective, budget-friendly, and reliable solar PV panels for homes and commercial properties.
