New CER photo evidence rules start March 2026. SolarLens AI™ instantly checks your installation photos against Australian standards — so you never fail an STC claim.
The Clean Energy Regulator now requires clear, geotagged and timestamped photos of critical labelling for every solar battery installation claiming STCs under SRES. Failure to comply may result in failed STC claims and compliance action.
Manual compliance reviews cost businesses thousands in overhead and lost revenue. SolarLens AI™ provides precision-grade verification at a fraction of the cost.
A single manual compliance review failure can result in rejected STC claims averaging $2,000–$3,000. SolarLens AI™ eliminates this risk with automated visual verification for every site.
Resolve compliance errors on-site before the truck leaves the driveway, avoiding costly site revisits and project delays.
Scale your installation volume without ballooning your administrative headcount.Automate the visual audit process and empower your current team to process 10x more sites with higher accuracy.

Your questions about CER requirements and AI-powered inspections, answered by our compliance experts.
From 1 March 2026, the Clean Energy Regulator (CER) requires clear photographic evidence for every solar battery installation claiming STCs. Required photos include: (1) meter box showing green ES label with UN3480 designation, (2) switchboard showing warning letters and shutdown procedures, (3) battery hazard signs, and (4) an installer selfie. All photos must be geotagged and timestamped.
Under AS/NZS 5139 and CER 2026 guidelines, the ES label (Energy Storage label) must be a green circle with the letters "ES". Crucially, it must now have the UN3480 designation (Lithium Ion Battery) clearly displayed below the ES lettering to pass an audit.
Our platform uses Google Gemini AI models trained on AS/NZS 5139, AS/NZS 5033, and AS/NZS 3000. It automatically detects missing symbols, incorrect UN numbers, and non-compliant site configurations in milliseconds, preventing audit failures before you submit to the CER.
To pass, ensure your photos show: correct labelling (ES/PV), specific warning signs near the switchboard, and hazard signs (Toxic Fumes, Arc Flash) near the battery. Photos must be real-time, geotagged evidence. You can verify your evidence using the Live Demo on our platform.
Yes. Advanced Large Multimodal Models (LMMs) like Gemini 3 Pro are highly accurate at reading text, identifying icons, and understanding spatial relationships in photos. SolarLens AI™ provides a PASS/FAIL verdict with detailed reasoning, acting as a "second pair of eyes" for solar installers.
