Newcastle's Leading Residential & Commercial Solar Installers
Newcastle's Leading Residential & Commercial Solar Installers
Maitland NSW
Elite Power Group install solar panels, battery storage, EV chargers and carry out electrical work for homes and businesses in Raworth and surrounding parts of the Maitland LGA.
We are based in Thornton, which puts Raworth on our doorstep. Our SAA-accredited, in-house team works across
this part of Maitland regularly - from solar installations through to general electrical work, and we treat every job here the
same way we treat jobs anywhere else we operate.
Raworth Solar Installers
Our team designs and installs solar PV systems and battery storage for homes and businesses throughout Raworth and the surrounding Maitland area. Every system is sized to your property and your usage, not a standard package, and we handle everything from design through to Ausgrid connection and commissioning.
We also carry out residential and commercial electrical work across Raworth - including switchboard upgrades, EV charger installation, and general electrical services. If solar is not on the agenda yet, our licensed electricians are still available for the work you need.
Areas we service include Raworth, Metford, Lorn, Morpeth, East Maitland and surrounding suburbs within the City of Maitland LGA.
Raworth is a regular part of our Maitland schedule. Here are some of the solar and electrical projects our team has completed for local homeowners and businesses.

Local to You We are based in Thornton: Raworth is a short drive for our team, which means faster quotes, quicker site visits, and no travel surcharges. When something needs attention after installation, we are not a long way away.
Our Own Licensed Electricians: Every electrical job in Raworth, whether it is part of a solar installation or standalone electrical work - is carried out by our own licensed electricians. No subcontractors. That applies to switchboard work, EV charger installation, and anything else on the electrical side.
Solar and Electrical Under One Roof: A lot of solar companies are not electricians, and a lot of electricians do not do solar. We do both. If your Raworth property needs a switchboard upgrade before solar can be installed, or if you want solar, battery and EV charging sorted at the same time, our team handles it all without you needing to coordinate separate trades.
Honest and Straightforward: Raworth is a modest, established suburb. People here are not looking for a sales pitch — they want to know what a system costs, whether it makes sense for their property, and that the work will be done properly. That is how we operate.
SAA-Accredited with 10 Plus Years Experience: Full SAA accreditation across our solar design and install team, with over a decade of installations across the Maitland LGA and the broader Hunter region.
Raworth is a settled residential suburb with established homes, many of which are well suited to solar. Properties here tend to have
adequate roof space, reasonable north-facing aspects, and electricity bills that a well-sized system can meaningfully reduce. The Federal
Battery Rebate has made battery storage more accessible too, and for households wanting to cover evening usage from stored solar, the
conversation around battery is more straightforward than it has been before.
Federal Battery Rebate Available: eligible Raworth homeowners can access a meaningful upfront discount on battery storage.
Switchboard Upgrades: older homes in Raworth sometimes need electrical upgrades before solar installation. Our electricians assess and handle this as part of the same job.
Licensed Electricians On Staff: standalone electrical work available in Raworth.. not just solar.
Thornton-Based Team: quick access from our base, no travel delays or surcharges for Raworth jobs.
