Why Choose AIKO Neostar Panels?
AIKO Neostar solar panels offer a balance of cutting-edge technology, superior performance, and long-term reliability, making them an excellent choice for residential and commercial installations. Here’s why AIKO Neostar stands out in today’s solar market:
Advanced Solar Technology for Maximum Efficiency
AIKO Neostar panels are built with N-Type ABC (All Back Contact) technology, a sophisticated design that places all electrical contacts on the rear of the cells. This maximises the active surface area exposed to sunlight, significantly boosting energy conversion rates. The result is higher overall power output and more efficient energy generation, making these panels ideal for optimising energy production, even on rooftops with limited space.
Consistent Performance in Real-World Conditions
AIKO Neostar panels are engineered to perform under a wide range of environmental conditions. With a superior temperature coefficient of -0.26%/°C and innovative partial shading optimization, these panels maintain high output in both high-temperature environments and low-light conditions, such as mornings, evenings, or cloudy days. This ensures a reliable energy supply regardless of weather fluctuations, helping you get the most from your solar system year-round.

I have single phase power, how much rooftop solar PV can I install on my roof?
If your house is single phase power, the amount of rooftop solar PV that you can install will depend on your electricity network provider, as each electricity network provider has different rules.
In almost all instances, you can install more inverter capacity than what the electricity network provider says, so long as you grid export limit your solar PV system. Note: Not all inverters have grid export limit capability.
Below is a table showing the allowed capacity (inverter capacity and your grid export limit), for each of the electricity network providers for single phase households:
SA Power Networks (SA) max 10kW inverter capacity, 5kW export limit Powercor (VIC) no inverter limit, 5kW export limit CitiPower (VIC) no inverter limit, 5kW export limit Ausnet Services (VIC) max 10kW inverter capacity, 5kW export limit United Energy (VIC) max 10kW inverter capacity, 10kW export limit Jemena (VIC) max 10kW inverter capacity, 10kW export limit Energex (QLD) max 10kW inverter capacity, 5kW export limit Ausgrid (NSW) max 10kW inverter capacity, 10kW export limit EVO Energy (ACT) max 10kW inverter capacity, 5kW export limit
