Noosa Electric Co Returns to Sunshine Beach EV Expo – Join Us June 22!

We’re excited to announce that Noosa Electric Co will be attending the EV & Electrify Everything Expo for the second year in a row, happening on June 22. As a proudly local electrician servicing Noosa, Pomona, Bli Bli, Twin Waters and beyond, we’re passionate about supporting the Sunshine Coast’s transition to cleaner, smarter energy solutions — and there’s no better place to explore the future of electrification than this fantastic community event.

Last year’s expo was a great success, with locals turning out in force to learn about electric vehicles, solar technology, battery storage, and all things sustainable. This year, we’re bringing even more insight, experience and practical knowledge to the table — especially when it comes to home and business electrification.

At our stand, you’ll be able to chat with our friendly team about:

• EV charging station installations for homes and commercial properties
• The role of solar energy and battery storage in reducing energy costs
• Upgrading switchboards to support modern electrification needs
• The growing importance of electrification in homes and businesses across the Sunshine Coast
• Integrating air-conditioning, appliance upgrades, and lighting solutions into a more efficient electrical future

Whether you’re an EV owner looking to charge smarter at home, a business interested in reducing your carbon footprint, or simply curious about how electrification can improve your home, we’re here to help with practical, long-term advice.

We’re not just your average Sunshine Coast electrician. At Noosa Electric Co, we believe in doing things properly — offering quality electrical solutions that stand the test of time. We’re not the cheapest option, and we’re proud of that. We take the time to make sure every job is done right, whether it’s a residential installation, solar upgrade, or commercial fit-out.

Come meet us at the Sunshine Beach EV Expo on June 22 and let’s talk about how we can help you electrify your future with confidence.

If you’re considering a battery for your home or business, now is a great time to take action with the new government’s Home Battery Subsidy:

What is the Battery Subsidy?

It won’t be means-tested and offers an approximately 30 per cent discount on batteries for households, businesses and community facilities such as sports centres or town halls. [SRC: ABC]

What is the right size battery for my home?

Obviously, every home is different and energy needs vary, but the Smart Energy Council crunched the numbers recently on household power usage and came up with this conclusion: the battery you need to lower bills is smaller, and therefore cheaper, than you might think.

It found that to avoid using power during that evening peak, over 90 per cent of households could get by with a battery as small as 6 or 7 kilowatt-hours.

That’s smaller than the average battery installation, with two of the most popular batteries in Australia being around 13 kilowatt-hours. [SRC: ABC]

If you’re not sure, or you’d like to know more, simply contact our team – we’ll be happy to help you with determining the best battery for your property. We can also assist with associated aspects including solar power, energy management, and EV charging, in addition to more traditional electrical requirements such as air-conditioning, appliances, and smoke alarms.

How do I get the subsidy?

When you purchase your battery from Noosa Electric Co., the price will already be adjusted to include the subsidised rate.

When can I get a subsidised battery?

Subsidised batteries will be installed by our team from July 1st 2025. If you’d like to register for a subsidised battery to beat the crowds, please complete the form below.

What brand of batteries do you install?

We always work with quality brands that are designed for the Australian environment and compatible with your existing technology infrastructure. To determine the best brand for your home, contact us on the form below and we’ll discuss your energy goals and help you to connect with an appropriate brand and model.
