SAA-Accredited & Fully Licensed — Every installer is accredited and licenced, giving you peace of mind and warranty protection.

Over a Decade of Experience — Serving the Hunter since 2014, with hundreds of homes and businesses powered across Newcastle, Maitland, Lake Macquarie, and beyond.

One-Stop-Shop — Solar, batteries, EV charging, and electrical all under one roof. One company, one relationship.

REDUCE YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT

By adding panels to your roof, you harness free electricity which reduces your daily grid consumption. This reduces your reliance on fossil fuel-generated electricity.

REDUCED GRID RELIANCE

Using the excess solar energy that you store throughout the day at night helps reduce your reliance on peak period grid energy, greatly reducing grid reliance.

INCREASE ENERGY INDEPENDENCE

Rely on self-generated power and increase your independence, especially with a battery. Offset your daily usage with solar generation and reduce grid consumption.

24/7 ENERGY BACKUP

Having a solar battery means that you have backup energy during grid outages which enables you to stay powered on independent of the grid.

REDUCE ENERGY BILLS

Because you're relying on the energy YOU generate during the day, you avoid paying full electricity bills, and further reduce them with feed-in-tariffs.

INCREASE PROPERTY VALUE

Did you know you can boost your property's value by adding solar? Homes that generate their own power generally sell for more as most value self-sufficiency.

MAXIMISE YOUR SOLAR

Instead of selling your solar energy for cheap through FiTs, you gain the ability to join Amber and trade your energy, or use it instead of expensive peak energy.
