Was not able to put the installer that I used above

It was the first Installer that you quoted me which was Smartlyte NOT Advance Energy Management.
The reason for selecting Smartlyte was, that he had the most reasonable quote & did not use subcontractors & he was able to install in quick time within a few days of accepting his quote and he was able to put all 23 Solar Panels on my Northernly facing roof were some of the other Installers said it could not be done!!!!! I did not accept any quotes for placing any solar panels on my 19.5 X 4.5 meter Flat Stratco Roof as it might collapse under the weight. Mr. Jacob Navosa did an excellent job around having put in the solar panels, inverter & batteries as well as changing 23 LED lights & installing a extra split system of which we have 5 split systems in our house. Just waiting for an inspector to inspect the whole system.

Very Happy, especially the installation. A1

We contacted Advanced Energy Management because we dealt with them years ago and although at that time we were not ready to upgrade our solar we were given some truthful advice. So when we moved house we thought we would deal with them again. During our sales enquirer I spoke with an actual electrician who could answer all my questions accurately on the spot with no bull. I was really impressed with all the knowledge he had especially of the products they had on offer. Even the specific hardware was described to me in detail. At the end I received two quotes of different sized systems and we went with the one that meet our need best. This choice was made easier due to the easy to follow quotation and a quick follow up call to the same sales person who was so helpful and patient answering my specific questions.

Th installation started promptly and the crew were easy to understand and professional. The job was neatly done and exceeded my expectations. The senior installer was supper friendly and even suggested to place the inverter in a place where I never thought was possible and even though it was harder to do there was no extra cost. Most of the electrical wiring was hidden behind the brick work which made the job look so neat.

As the installers were packing up that afternoon the inspector came and gave it the all clear and we were producing solar and enjoying our generation of power.

We were so happy with the entire process that I went down in person to their office to thank the team and express how happy we were. I was even invited in the office and shown in detail how the Solar System was performing.

Sunny days ahead?

Having got my 3 quotes from Solar Quotes, I spoke to each of the installers recommended and came away very impressed with my conversation with James at Advanced Energy Mgt.

James took time to speak to me at length, about everything I wanted to achieve, and the process involved.

Because we live in a relatively new, 2 story townhouse, our roof is divided in 4 smallish zones, so that required some fiddling with landscape orientation of the panels. It also meant that we would need to remove the old solar evac hot water & gas booster. To further maximise generation, we decided to have an extra 3 panels in portrait on top of the pergola.

Having to remove the old hot water system, bought the opportunity to install an iStore heat pump.

The week of the install, the roofers arrived to install the safety fence on the roof. 2 story requirment in Vic. Then Simon the plumber arrived first to remove the old hot water system, and install the heat pump. They had to come back the following day to remove the old roof unit, and while on the roof he fixed a leak that I had asked him about.

Andy the solar installer, arrived at 8am on the Weds, to start the install, this took the rest of the week, due in part to heavy rain making working at height unsafe.

By Friday evening the system was completed and working and awaiting final sign off from the inspector, which was duly done.

The slowest part of the process was getting the system registered and the meter configuration updated by Jemena and Simply.

Have been super happy with the system, the quality of the install and its reliability.

Better than I expected.

I was referred to AEM by a friend who used them. And it has been one of my best recommendations.
They guided me through all the Solar Vic process, provided me with viable options, and everything that they promised, happened, and when they said it would happen.
The install went smoothly, A very neat install, and the system was signed off & activated the very next day.
Now, 2+ years after the install, I am very happy with the system, which is working perfectly and I'm only about 6 months away from breaking even from all my install costs.
Just an excellent group of guys who REALLY know their business.

Original Review on 06-01-2023:

Knowledgeable, professional, and high quality

Our salesman James proved to be highly knowledgeable, making a strong impression on me and he really stood out among the other companies we engaged for quotes. His experience as an former installer was very obvious, and helpful. He was also the only one willing to come out and measure our roof, which he did promptly. He was very friendly and patiently answered all of my questions.

We have a complex, fairly solar-unfriendly roof. Of all the quotes we received, AEM designed the largest, taking my request to "fill the roof" seriously, and making use of all 6 faces to make the most of what we had (and yes, we do plan to remove that evap cooling unit to avoid shading the panels!). We also had some existing solar hotwater panels that we wanted removed and replaced with PV panels. James was willing to make changes to the plan (including various minor informational things that affected projected production values, such as the tilt of the panels to match our building plans), and amend the quote to add our condition of being subjected to the site inspection not finding and major differences from the plan and we signed and paid our deposit on the 10th of October.

We had quite a bit of rain over the next two months which unfortunately delayed installation more than we'd have liked - and the industry has been very busy, so we were getting nervous that our install would even get done in 2022 as we were approaching the end of the year - but the weather was beyond anyone's control. They arranged the solar HW panels to be removed within a month of paying the deposit, and installation started on the 5th of December. It took 2.5 days to complete given the complexity.

The installation team, Chandler & co, were fantastic. They were friendly, punctual, and hard working, and cleaned up after themselves. Things were not smooth (e.g. unfavourable weather to be working on a roof at times, plans couldn't be followed exactly due to the unavailabity of the originally specified panels that were measured for), but Chandler came up with an alternate solution that resulted in no loss to the size, or any change to the cost of the system, and they moved mountains to get the job done in time. They arranged inspection on the last day and it was completed before they left my premises. There were some minor issues with monitoring and production on some microinverters that were resolved over the next two weeks, with an additional visit they managed to squeeze in before Christmas.

They did help organise grid connection promptly after the install (or after I paid, I'm not sure which, as I paid promptly), and it was just today, roughly a month later that the distributor finally did that.

All-in-all I'm very happy with the system so far, and in my dealings with AEM. They satisfactorily solved all the issues that came along and my partner and I are grateful they got everything done and the system was fully operational before the end of year. Well done team, keep up the good work!

12 months later we asked Sam: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"

The solar system has performed admirably, meeting or even exceeding my expectations in terms of energy production.
Over the first two summer months, the south-facing panels showcased remarkable consistency with the north-facing ones, actually outperforming them

I am pleased to report that even after a year, I haven't observed any significant degradation in panel performance. I've only spot-checked half of my panels to write this, but all panels checked have maintained their efficiency, showing minimal signs of wear or decline in energy output. I do need to get up there and clean the panel directly underneath the TV antenna though!

Although I haven't yet invested in a battery due to our relatively low energy consumption not justifying the cost, I am still contemplating this upgrade. The system's consistent performance has inspired confidence, and I'm considering adding battery storage in the future to optimize self-consumption further, once we migrate off the last of our gas appliances - hopefully the numbers will make more sense with the increased electrical consumption.

Knowledgeable Sales and Diligent Installer

This was the most expensive quote I received being on the order of 10% more than most others. However, I went with it as the salesperson gave me considerable confidence by spending time both on the phone and in a site visit. They also demonstrated a deeper understanding of all things Solar/Battery related in comparison to others.

There was no hard sell, no limited time offers, and they weren't trying to sell me outdated components or bundle in with a particular energy provider.

Installers were on time, professional and paid attention to details with all work completed in two days. The inspector only picked up some minor issues which I'm promised will be rectified in the coming weeks. There was some minor plasterwork damage (from a dropped tape measure), but things are in process to get that repaired and repainted.

The system has now been running for 3 weeks and I've only needed to pull 300W from the grid overnight once after a run of cloudy days. I'm still not earning FiT but that's through no fault of AEM and down to the clunky systems employed by my power wholesaler and retailer.

I know I might have been able to get slightly better value for money elsewhere, but I'm confident it would have come at the cost of install quality and/or after sales support.

Efficient and helpful

Very happy with all parts of the installation process. Never felt I was being up-sold anything unnecessary and the team at Advanced Energy Management were all happy to answer my questions.

Installation ran smoothly and was organised in a timely manner. Would recommend them to friends and family.

Best Solar Installer

Wanted to increase output of existing solar system enabling me to make the change to all electric appliances
Ask two solar consulting agencies to recommend three companies each for quotes on solar upgrade to existing system
Received company details and contacted all six
One was unable to help
Another wanted to scrap existing system and install their new system
Three others hounded me to let them install Chinese systems and battery
AEM responded with proposed quote and made contact a few days later to see if i was interested in proceeding with their quote - response Yes
Notified other customers that their quote was unsuccessful and two wanted to know why, and one wanted me to tell them details of price and system so they could give better price response no sorry
Jason from AEM (Senior Consultant) came for free site inspection armed with drone
Gave him copies of electricity bill etc and he provided me with two layout quotes
AEM said my current electricity usage for one person in household did not warrant the high expense of installing a solar battery
I accepted option number two and after making a couple of refinements arrangements were made for Deposit amount and proposed installation date proposed
Was great that AEM arranged solar rebate and notified all parties involved and kept me updated all the way
Paid deposit and happy with installation date a couple of days later
Installation done professionally and safely with installation of security hand rails and on completion put security padlock on Inverter to stop system being activated
Qualified electrical inspector came a few days later and was happy with the quality of work done but asked AEM to remove one of my older panels from string as nine panels were a slight overload to inverter and to be coupled up with
new bank of five panels
AEM came back immediately with possible solution to replace the old panel with an extra new panel to make string of six compatible at extra reduced price for unforseen problem
AEM rang back later that day to say that one of their engineers came up with a cheaper and simpler way of addressing the problem of one panel not being the same output wattage as the new panels on the string which would reduce the output of entire string by attaching a Tigo Optimiser to boost power outage of that panel to conform to others on that string
Ingenious solution and a lot cheaper at $200 for Tigo installation and rewiring the two new string configurations thus satisfying Safety Electrical Engineers request
Special thanks to Jason and AEM team
Very happy with entire process and would highly recommend this company to everyone

Very happy, timely installation and great team

All communication with AEM was great. Prompt, informative, helpful, friendly and professional. From the outset, when Jase visited and explained the project details, we felt comfortable that all would go smoothly. Hermanto was fantastic. He organised installation which took only 3 weeks from acceptance of the proposal, and the installation team were a great group of guys - knew what they were doing, and got on with the job. They were very nice guys too. We were really happy with that. The whole team, sales, admin, managerial, installation, work really well together. We have had no problems with anything. It was a very pain free process. Thanks AEM!

Excellent experience from beginning to end

Can't praise my experience with AEM enough. The salesman was extremely helpful and explained everything in a way that was easily understood. Once I accepted the quote the excellent service didn't stop there. Any questions I had were answered happily and thoroughly and the installers were lovely. They were tidy and polite and were happy to wait for the system to generate power to show it was working (which was quite a while). All in all I would recommend this company to anyone looking to install solar panels or hot water.

Our salesperson, Jason, was friendly, helped us choose the best system for us and made the process easy to understand.
The installation happened on time and the inspector came the same day, so we were up and running with solar power straight away.
The installer were friendly, efficient and open to any questions we had.
All in all a very good experience with Advanced Energy.

AEM - excellence in customer service and subject expertise

From a first general inquiry, from PV novices, through to discussions on aspects of each potential providers quotes, we found AEM to be direct and factual in their offering and this was backed up by an experienced and knowledgeable team. Once options were settled on (full system with battery and export) the onsite team made sure the look and functionality of the system was fit for purpose and delivered optimum results. The installation was seemless and very professional. Also, the customer experience was so well managed by clear and regular feedback. AEM are the best I’ve dealt with and I thoroughly recommend them for your consideration.

All good

James was great up front in helping design a system. I appreciated the fact he was more than happy to come and inspect our property to provide confidence that the system would fit as planned (three story property with a split roof added some complication).
The install took place over two days and Wishan, Phil and the team were top notch. Super respectful and kept me informed throughout. Would certainly recommend.

Super friendly. But 1 day became 4.

These guys are super friendly, approachable, easy to deal with and trustworthy.
They attended with a drone for the site inspection and explained why I didn’t need additional panels and boutique-solar options that the competitors were padding quotes with.
They were able to assist with a wallbox smart EV charger which has worked out really well in Melbourne’s winter where it will ‘top-up’ Solar charging with grid power when necessary.
However installation was more difficult than expected by their sales and it took several days longer across multiple weeks.
They absorbed the cost.
I would absolutely use them again but I can work from home to accommodate scheduling and miscommunication.

Solar off line! Notified by AEM … incredible service

I was contacted by Advanced Energy Management that my solar system was not online. I was unaware and extremely grateful for the phone call. Excellent service and communication provided and I was back on line in no time! I appreciated that I was called within a week and I found the service exceptional. Highly recommended installation, service and attention to detail.

Look no further

The solar industry can be a bewildering place to the uninformed (I place myself in this category) full of grifters quivering with anticipation at the thought of government rebates. That is why AEM stands out amount the crowd. From the first time I contacted them I felt they were actually trying to design a system that would work for me, not for their bottom line, and their unwavering support continues to this day, even though the system is up and running perfectly and paid for in full. I feel extremely fortunate to have selected them and highly recommend that you do the same.

Installation was very good with explanation all the way through. Was very happy took effort in running cat 5 network cable to my router at back of house rather than rely on wifi.
Only minor issues with scaffholding team arriving day before to erect on roof and not notified and minor scraps of rubbish from install left around. However overall excellent job.

The team at AEM were always punctual and took care when installing the solar system. They worked with me to ensure my requirements were met and explained how the system functioned when they had finished. They also made sure to clean up after themselves when they left the premises each day. Background work liaising with the electrical inspector and my energy providers was also seamless.

If you are in Melbourne get AEM to do your instal

I have had a bit of a bumpy ride with my solar installation, however, at the end of it all I can’t recommend AEM highly enough.

I contacted multiple companies to get quotes for my solar installation. Some quoted all one line, and one or two came to my house and took a quick look. But Jase from AEM, came to my house and spent a few hours with me going over all my options, and in the end, I was very happy with the option we picked.

Installation was arranged promptly and while they contracted out the job the installers I had were also very professional and did a great job.

Unfortunately, about a month after the system was turned on half my panels stopped producing any power and the wifi connection was very patchy. At this point, Charlene stepped in and was very helpful as was Hermanto and soon enough my problems were all resolved.

I now have a system that meets all my needs and I am very happy with the exceptional service I received. I will be working with them in the future when it is time for a battery.

I would strongly recommend AEM to anyone.

Super efficient, super professional, super patient.

Sale and quoting process was professional and the sales person could not have been more helpful and patient. I had some information on solar but felt that the sales team weren’t trying to railroad me into an expensive system I didn’t need.

The installation process was super efficient. The team were hard working, respectful and gave me great advice on the day to smooth over a small hiccup with planned panel placement.

The after sales followup was seamless. Every commitment was met. The timeline was faster then suggested and we got cutover and feeding back into the grid in no time at all.

I went with the team because of the great reviews about installation and after sales service and they delivered in spades.

Very professional installers, sorted teething issues until there were no more issues

Sought a quote from Matt Delaney at AEM when I saw several favourable reviews on Solar Quotes. I wanted a reasonable sized system that would have us covered in the event of a power outage, of which we’d had many in the last couple of years, and wasn’t so concerned with the feed in tariff, because at 5.6c/kW, it’s not going to make much difference. We also wanted a changeover switch for the generator put in the board as extra backup for extended outages, to avoid having a spaghetti junction inside. The only way to be covered for a power outage is to have a battery system, and after listening to a few other salesmen push medium sized systems with mid-range components, or cheap systems with cheap components and some with zero reviews, we decided to go with AEM after Matt assured me they could provide a safe, reliable system to suit our needs.

Chief electrician Wish turned up with his crew on time, had great control and oversight of the work, and had the system up and running in less than 3 days. All rebate applications put through by the office, no issues. Tested system a few times with power outage simulations, and it all seemed fine……until we had a real power outage. The inverter refused to kick in and run off the battery as it was supposed to, so through Matt and Wish, did a complete check of the wiring etc., and there didn’t seem to be any reason for the fault. Sure, it was frustrating, but I had every confidence that it would be sorted. As the guys had figured, turns out it was the only dodgy inverter Matt had encountered with Redback equipment. After waiting a couple of weeks for supply of a new replacement, Wish turned up and did the swap, and after several power outages since, we’ve been able to carry on pretty much as normal.

Would definitely recommend AEM for whatever system you’re after.

Great quality and performance.

AEM installed our solar system in November 2021, Matt did a brilliant job with the system design. He listened to what our expectations were and put together a system that achieved our key goals of a high standard of equipment, workmanship and performance.
The performance is outstanding, thanks to Matt suggesting additional panels over the capacity of the invertor to ensure maximum output.
We reduced our bill by more than $2000 in the first year, and our estimated electricity cost for 2023 is a CREDIT of $40 for the year, and that’s with running the pool pumps every day.
Wishan and the installation team were fantastic, the workmanship is first class, and we are very particular in that regard.
Paul the Electrical Inspector was extremely thorough with the inspection and commissioning of the system.
We couldn’t be happier with the outcome and would recommend AEM to anyone wanting a quality outcome.

Great work from Cerin and the team based out of Perth

Great experience end to end with Advance Energy Management

From the very start the communication was prompt and clear.
The proposal provided was excellent with all required information provided. The use of reputable brand quality components also helped me ultimately make the decision to proceed.
Andrew and the team of installers arrived on time and were very polite and engaging.
The crew installed fall protection before accessing the roof showing a high level of safety compliance for the workers.
This safety extended to the way they managed the electrical safety on the day.
The installation took a great part of the day and the team stayed until the installation was finished (almost until it was dark). Instead of returning the next day.
The installation of the inverter and panels is very neat and tidy and they cleaned up well after their work.
The installation was inspected within a few days.
They have assisted us with the process to organise the grid connection.
I would recommend AEM to anyone contemplating solar installation.

Horrible Installation from start to finish. I DO NOT recommend them as a supplier/installer.

A Horrible Installation all round. They cancelled original install day which I had taken off work, I had to take another day off work a week later for the install! Then the install ran over and they had to come back again to finish, so another day off work!!
* The installers left a heap of roof screws and old mounting brackets, zip ties and rubbish etc in the gutters.
* They screwed through my exposed eave sheets in 6 places!
* Some of the rails were not installed vertically!
* They creased and dented so many roof sheets because they didn't walk on the screws as you are supposed to do when on a tin roof
* They screwed some the roof sheets down SO TIGHT in a lot of places places that it has forced the corrugated iron nearly flat, then just smothered everything in yellow silicone sealant ...absolutely disgusting workmanship …. This is a roof that is less than 10 years old and was in perfect condition before the install.
* They left the roof sarking torn open where they removed a sheet on the top storey to let light in.
* They scratched the colorbond sheets when they opened the roof for access....
* They left insulation batts out when they accessed the roof to connect the Inverter.
* The rail overhang was all misaligned leaving dodgy uneven finished ends, and the panels were not mounted at the same height (should have been easy to do seeing as how the rails are adjustable for that very reason!!)
* They left graffiti in permanent marker on the roof sheets.

I guess they figured that because it was a second storey install that "the client" (Me) would not get up there to check on the workmanship..... how wrong they were!!

How disappointed I was..........

Have a look at a small sample of photos and see for yourself, then choose another installer!!

Top notch solar installer and energy saving results.

The AEM team are very professional and the solar energy generation results have exceeded my expectations. We are now 98% energy efficient in the first week after it being switched on at the beginning of September with plenty of rainy and cloudy days, with 9.6kW of solar panels and a 14kWh redback battery and we’ve sold a lot of electricity to the grid as well. Amazing!
