Enact provides multiple solutions to empower local businesses across every stage of the solar design and sales process. From automating designs and proposals to seamless project management, Enact simplifies the journey toward solar adoption.
We stand alongside solar installers in Australia throughout their business operations.
Thanks to the latest Enact software, installers can easily manage solar and storage projects, track leads, and create tailored solar proposals in minutes. On the consumer side, the Enact Home app helps simplify solar ownership with aesthetic solar monitoring.
Our leading solar design software supports Australian solar installers to automate designs, proposals and project management for residential and commercial solar and storage. Our installer platform is already empowering solar installers in over 25 countries.
We aim to simplify the design process with features like auto-detection of roof parameters, accurate shading tools, auto-detect chimney height and tree height. Succeeding in the solar market with Enact’s next-generation tool is easier than ever.
Automated Roof Analysis: Enact for Installers features an advanced auto-detect tool that accurately determines roof height, pitch and the solar azimuth angle. Our latest software precisely identifies the heights of chimneys and trees, enabling you to design the optimal system for your clients. This automated obstacle detection not only saves time but also allows you to design systems within minutes.
On-Screen Summaries: As you craft customized solar designs for your customers, Enact’s platform conveniently displays an on-screen summary, continually updated with critical generation data. This information includes kWp size, kWh generation, percentage offset, and kWh storage, expediting the design process and enhancing your understanding of system capabilities.
Precision Shading: We empower solar professionals to create systems that align with customer requirements. Our solar solution incorporates a highly accurate shading tool that functions effectively across various geographical locations. Say goodbye to unexpected shading issues that might compromise your customer’s system.

The state of Australia’s solar market
Australia is among the world’s leaders when it comes to solar energy. A University of Sydney article stated 3.3 million Australian homes have rooftop solar panels. Ember, a British energy think tank, found the Pacific giant has the second largest solar share of total electric output at 14.2%. Australia generates 39 terawatt hours of electricity from solar panels.
There is ample opportunity for Australian solar installation professionals in residential and commercial markets. The Australian Energy Council reported rooftop solar continues to be a part of the country’s transition to clean in 2023’s first quarter. The report found, rooftopsolar accounted for 19.8 gigawatts of capacity at the end of the first quarter. This compared to 23.3 GW generated from coal at the same time. Going down to the state-level, Mordor Intelligence separately stated rooftop solar will be a vital part in achieving renewable energy goals for Queensland.
Solar energy is not proportionally distributed across Australia’s six states and two internal territories. Data from Statista shows Tasmania having the highest share of renewable energy at an impressive 99.1% — with South Australia in second at 71.5%. Renewables form a minority share of the remaining state’s energy sources.
Overall, the Australian economy is still dependent on coal and natural gas for electricity. The Pacific country transitions toward clean country is contrasted with its large coal, natural gas and uranium deposits. The country is one of the largest producers of coal and uranium and sixth in natural gas.
Along with the growth and popularization of solar in Australia, there are ample opportunities for the solar installers. Electricity bills have risen in Australia, similar to other regions, which is a concern for many households. Solar offers Australian households an attractive and sustainable alternative or supplement to surging utility costs.
Even as investment in large-scale solar decrease, rooftop solar remains strong. The Guardian reported Australia has the world’s highest per-capita solar energy penetration, using data from OpenNEM. Even in the warm winter, over a quarter of electricity used on Australia’s east coast is generated from rooftop panels during the peak sunny days.
At a state-wide level, the government of Victoria plans to ban gas connections for new households starting on 1 January 2024. This decision will further promote all-electric households which encourages the adoption of renewable energy sources. While this is a state-wide decision, it reflects the broader Australian goal to rapidly cut carbon emissions and achieve a net-zero carbon footprint by 2045.
A hot topic among the worldwide solar industry is battery storage, the Land Down Under is no different. Wood MacKenzie found Australia leads the world in battery storage. The global research group expects battery capacity buildout to accelerate as battery pricing is expected to decrease by 18% to 21%. Module pricing is expected to decline by over 40% in Australia by 2032 — for both Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) and Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC) chemistries. Wood MacKenzie expects renewable energy plus storage will undercut coal and gas by 2028 in Australia.
