The Fronius Watt Pilot includes a 2-year manufacturer’s warranty that covers defects and ensures reliable long-term performance. Extended warranty options may be available through certified installers or when integrated with other Fronius energy products.
For the strongest warranty support, always choose professional installation and proper setup procedures.
Generate electricity from sunlight to lower monthly power costs. Self-produced energy reduces grid dependence and often leads to immediate savings after installation.
Solar power is renewable and emits no greenhouse gases during operation. Installing solar reduces fossil fuel use and lowers your household carbon footprint.
Produce and store your own electricity to reduce exposure to utility price increases and grid outages. Batteries let you use stored power when generation is low.
Solar systems enhance property appeal and can increase resale value. Buyers value lower running costs and an energy-efficient home.
Many regions offer tax credits, rebates, or feed-in tariffs to reduce the upfront cost of solar systems. These programs make switching to solar more affordable and rewarding.
Solar systems are modular and can be expanded as your energy needs grow. You can easily add more panels or storage capacity in the future without replacing the entire system.

Our expert team handles everything — from design and installation to maintenance — ensuring your solar system performs at its best.
The installation begins with securing roof anchors, which act as the main support points for the solar panel mounts. Once anchors are fixed, the mounting structure is installed based on the roof type—tile, metal, or flat. These mounts form the foundation that holds the panels securely in place and maintains the correct angle for maximum sunlight exposure.
For homes in the Southern Hemisphere, such as in Australia, positioning panels toward the north ensures the best solar energy output throughout the year.
After the mounts are installed, the next step is connecting the electrical wiring. The setup can vary depending on your system design but generally involves connecting solar panels either in series or parallel.
Series connection: Positive (+) of one panel connects to the negative (-) of another, increasing voltage.
Parallel connection: Positive (+) terminals join together and negative (-) terminals join together, keeping voltage the same but increasing current.
Once the wiring is complete, the solar panels are connected to the inverter. This device converts DC power from the panels into AC power suitable for home use or grid supply.
For series wiring, the last panel’s positive terminal connects to the inverter’s positive input, and the first panel’s negative terminal connects to the inverter’s negative input.
For parallel wiring, the combined positive and negative lines are connected directly to the inverter’s respective inputs. This ensures stable and efficient power conversion for your electrical system.
After connecting the inverter, the next step is installing the solar battery. The battery’s positive terminal connects to the inverter’s positive terminal, and the negative connects to the inverter’s negative.
This allows energy storage for later use—especially useful during cloudy days, nighttime, or power outages. Solar batteries help you rely less on the grid and use more of your self-generated power, effectively lowering energy bills and providing reliable backup power.
The final step involves upgrading or configuring your electricity meter. Traditional analog meters can only measure total energy consumption, not how much solar power you export or import from the grid.
A smart meter enables accurate, real-time tracking of both solar energy production and usage. It allows you and your energy provider to measure exported energy, ensuring proper credit for the electricity you send back to the grid and optimizing your solar system’s efficiency.
The Fronius Wattpilot is a smart EV charger that works with or without a solar system. It can automatically use solar surplus energy to charge your electric vehicle efficiently.
No. It can charge from the grid alone, but works best with a Fronius inverter and Smart Meter for solar-optimized charging.
Eco Mode – Uses solar surplus or lowest-cost electricity
Next Trip Mode – Charges to a set amount (km or kWh) needed for your next trip
Yes. It supports all EVs with a Type 2 connection (Type 1 possible with adapter).
Yes. It automatically adjusts from 1.38 kW up to 11/22 kW depending on the model and available power.
The Wattpilot comes with a 3-year manufacturer warranty.
