Bill-first solar check

Upload your electricity bill and know your numbers first

Before you ask for quotes, let your bill show the useful parts: usage, tariff, supply charge, solar export, bill path, and whether a quote is worth checking.

PDF, JPG, PNG, screenshots, and bill photos supported
Low-confidence reads are flagged instead of silently trusted
No quote request is sent without permission
Why it matters

A postcode calculator guesses. Your bill shows what you actually use and what your current retailer is charging.

What GridBeater checks

A buyer-side sanity check before the sales step.

No-spam flow
Bill path

Annualise your current bill and show what can happen if nothing changes.

Solar fit

Estimate whether solar is likely to pull back enough spend to justify a proper quote.

Tariff clues

Check peak usage, off-peak, controlled load, supply charge, and solar export where visible.

Next step

Show whether to get a quote, review an existing quote, switch plan, or ask for a human check.

Red flags worth checking
Zero or missing usage fields
Estimated reads or partial bills
Existing solar with a high bill
Very low annual savings that need quote caution
Commercial bills uploaded into a home flow

Common questions

Can I use a photo of a paper bill?

Yes. A clear photo or screenshot can work, but a native PDF usually gives the best read confidence.

What if the bill cannot be read?

GridBeater should flag the issue and route you to a manual review path rather than returning fake zero savings.

Will I get sales calls after uploading?

No quote or installer request should be triggered unless you choose that next step.
