About

FNQ’s Local Solar & Energy Specialists Since 2013

Based in Cairns, East Coast Energy Solutions (ECES) is a locally owned electrical and renewable energy company specialising in solar, battery storage, EV charging and off-grid energy solutions throughout Far North Queensland.

With more than a decade of experience, ECES has grown from a local electrical and solar contractor into one of the region’s most experienced renewable energy providers, delivering everything from residential solar and home batteries through to large-scale commercial, government and remote-area energy projects.

We don't believe in one-size-fits-all solar packages. Every system is designed around the customer's electricity usage, property, budget and future energy needs to make sure the solution stacks up both now and in the years ahead.

Award-Winning, Accredited & Experienced

Our team and installations have been recognised by some of Australia's leading electrical and renewable energy organisations.

  • Sigenergy Gold Partner
  • Gold Master Electricians Member
  • New Energy Tech Approved Seller

Installed by Our Own Team

We don't outsource our installations to subcontracted solar crews. Our projects are delivered by our own team of qualified electricians, accredited installers, apprentices and project staff.

Keeping our work in-house gives us greater control over installation quality, safety and workmanship while ensuring our customers know exactly who they're dealing with from quotation through to installation and after-sales support.

Residential to Large-Scale Commercial

Our experience extends well beyond residential rooftop solar.

ECES delivers commercial solar, battery storage and renewable energy projects throughout Far North Queensland, including projects for businesses, healthcare facilities, sporting clubs, government organisations and remote communities.

As licensed electrical contractors, we can also manage the wider electrical requirements that often come with larger renewable energy projects, including switchboard upgrades, electrical infrastructure, network applications, engineering coordination and system commissioning.

Solar / Battery

The service was good installation works well. Was good with communication while installing.
Did not go through the app at end to understand solar usage
Did register with Ergon for phase change over but finished the job before Ergon completed phase work ?
So far solar and battery are working well

Great product and service

The quoting process was seamless, and all my questions were answered. The installation was fantastic, the guys were friendly, polite, punctual and cleaned up after themselves. They were able to organise the phase reduction and run through how the system worked. I would definitely recommend East Coast Energy Solutions.

Fantastic system and quality install

The guys were punctual, efficient and did great job under pressure - we were scheduled for 28 April, so any issues or delays could have potentially meant missing the May 1 rebate deadline, but all was done on time. The quality of install - particularly the neatness of the conduits - was impressive.

Outstanding experience

Excellent communication by the East Coast team. When parts didn't arrive, they let me know, they were accommodating with the installation date due to my work roster. The installers were polite, professional and cleaned up everything before they left. Very tidy and neat install.

A good company to deal with

Quick and professional job. The team were here on a wet day, but worked through the weather regardless. The quotation and installation process was easy for us - and they cleaned up after themselves as well.

Battery installation by East Coast Energy Solutions

Ease Coast reviewed our existing Solar Panels and usage and tailored their recommendations for Battery Storage. They presented their quote in a clear and easy to understand manner, addressing our queries and concerns promptly, with understanding.
With consultation the installation date was postponed at our request due to Dan having surgery.
East Coast contacted us again to confirm a rescheduled installation date within the time period that we requested.
Installation was carried out on the day and time specified, with efficiency, leaving our garage clean and tidy. Chris explained and demonstrated the setup and operation.
In addition, when we contacted Chris the next day with a problem regarding the Solar.web app he was able to get it sorted for us promptly (within half an hour).

Have already recommended this company to family and friends.

Great to deal with. Really great install team. Very helpful all round.

The sales and quoting was professional and helpful no matter how many times I contacted them for information.
There was never any pressure to select one system over another, just helpful advice.
The install crew was punctual, efficient and tidy. They were very accomodating to my requests regarding me cleaning, replacing rusty screws and repairing minor damaged paint under the old system that was being removed prior to the new system install. I was shown the way the new system was setup and connected to the main switchboard and how to shutdown and reboot the system if ever necessary. It was explained to me how to set up the password for the first use and shown how the system appears in the online app.
