TrySolarHomeTrySolar provides indicative modelling only. The dashboard turns your plan rates and household assumptions into estimates so you can compare scenarios, not guaranteed savings or advice.
TrySolar helps New Zealand households model how electricity plans may perform against their usage, solar, battery, EV, and location settings. It is designed to make plan trade-offs easier to see before you enter your own bill or provider rates.
The example provider presets are based on publicly available plan information and reasonable assumptions. Many rates depend on your address, meter, region, or eligibility, so presets are not a live price-comparison service.
The app models monthly energy use, seasonal solar output, how much solar you use directly, battery storage, EV charging, export earnings, free-power windows, fixed daily charges, and location adjustments. Results are projected over a year from the plan and settings you choose.
TrySolar does not confirm eligibility, current retailer pricing, discount rules, meter setup, installer design, shading, hardware performance, plan availability, or tax treatment. Actual costs and solar or battery performance can be quite different from the estimates shown.
TrySolar is not an electricity retailer and is not affiliated with the providers represented in example presets. Rankings are based on modelled results from the rates and assumptions in the app, not paid placement.
TrySolar provides estimates only. Results are based on the rates, usage, solar output, battery, EV, location, and pricing settings entered into the app. Electricity prices, export rates, eligibility, discounts, GST, meter setup, and retailer terms can change. Solar and battery performance varies by site, hardware, weather, shading, orientation, installer design, and household behaviour. TrySolar is not financial, legal, tax, engineering, electrical, or retailer advice. Check rates and settings with your provider, installer, or qualified adviser before switching plans or purchasing equipment.
