Fantastic installer
I was extremely pleased with the whole installation process. The installers arrived promptly at the time set and worked efficiently and the process was completed quickly. Emma in the office was fantastic and helped me try and sort out the issues with my electricity retailers. Jack the electrician took time to explain how the apps etc all worked. Overall I am extremely happy with the whole product and would definitely recommend Kobi Energy Solutions17 May 2022

Great Service
Luke from Kobi was very informative when visiting for our quote. Top quality equipment was what we wanted and information was clearly supplied. Kobi's installation team was excellent and Jack was very informative on the process and explaining the app. We are waiting for final connection but all the rest of the paperwork is being handled by Emma and the rest of the Kobi staff who are extremely helpful for the whole process including help with the government grants.11 May 2022

Good experience with the purchase and installation of the additional solar capacity.
Sales/quoting process was done well. Price was very competitive and was provided in a timely manner.Installation was completed though I was surprised how much more time and effort it took to complete compared to the original system The installers were very polite and tidy. It wasn't communicated particularly well how long it would take, when they would be on site and what progress was made.
Everything was done by them. Grid connection was probably more straight forward as this was augmenting the original system.

Great experience.
Received three quotes from very insightful electrical contractors recommended by Solarquotes. Went with Kobi who provided the excellent quality panels and inverter for the best price. Installation went really well and without any hitches. The whole experience was great and made easier by Solarquotes website and recommended panels and inverters. Not discounting the effort made by the unsuccessful contractors either.Unfortunately due to being completed so close to the Christmas holiday period our Energy provider has not configured our meter.

Very professional team
Quote easy to understandVery tidy and polite
Electrical inspector they organised
Still waiting for power provider to reconfigure our metre box and so ausnet to adjust the street transformer
8 months later we asked Dianne: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
Nothing wrong with the system that I can tell just not getting the fit(feed in tariff) that we were hoping forCurrently doing research regarding a battery and Kobi solar have given me a quote
Will see how my research goes

Professional Installation, Polite and Patient Sales Team
I chose Kobi Energy Solutions (Wodonga) from the three installers provided to me through SolarQuotes. I found the team of 3 ‘Luke’s’ very professional. I had done my own research and knew from the moment I discussed my installation with Luke 'The Installer' that I had chosen the right company. He was very knowledgeable and down to earth. On the day of the install he kept me informed and ask me for my opinion as the install progressed. His installation team were very professional as well. I highly recommend Kobi Energy Solutions.The overall quoting process was standardized between the three companies suggested by SolarQuotes. That way I was comparing apples with apples.
Luke 'The Salesperson' was very patient and polite. In the end he provided me with four different arrays. I thank him for his patience and politeness.
Kobi Energy organised the grid connection through Essential energy. Its just a frustrating 15 business days waiting to be connected to the grid.
I am a very happy customer. My 10kW system is just what I want, looking 5 to 10 years down the track.

Quality, punctual and friendly service.
Kobi kept me well informed of the process of installation and were prompt and efficient. The small change necessary was discussed with me and the installation went smoothly. Covid restrictions have had a small impact on connecting an app but this is beyond control.Inverter rating: 5/5

Very Professional All Your Questions Answered
Kobi Energy were very professional, they personally came to our property to outline the proposal and were with us every step of the way, everything was done punctually and efficiently.I think the thing that stood out was that you never felt like you were a burden if you had to contact them with any questions, they help you through all the various documentation and processes that has to completed.

Great installer
Sales person and office were great, installation was great and guys were great, customer service great and Kobi organized everthing, we didn't have to worry about anything22 April 2021
Very professional and has great service.
Everything was scheduled and quoted correctly. The instillation was very efficient. We had some difficulty because of our roof design and sun location. However Kobi Energy were able to get the most efficient design to capture as much sun as possible without the elimination of surrounding trees.Panel rating: 5/5

Prompt Service
Sales & quoting was very good and installation very quick once all the paperwork went through. The only disappointment is the inspector to get the system going still hasn't come and its been 3 weeks since installation.10 April 2021

Good communication and high quality system
Lots of communication from admin to ensure we knew where we were up to, the installation went ahead a couple of days later than expected due to the installers getting held up with other jobs but still pretty prompt. The system seems high quality and is attached unobtrusively.03 April 2021

Fantastic company
Kobi are a fantastic company to deal with. Dan’s customer service is exceptional, we came across a hiccup initially with the feed cable to the house being too small, the other two companies didn’t seem to be interested after that, but Dan went above and beyond to come up with a solution. Would recommend anyone looking for solar to use Kobi.17 March 2021
Happy customer
The whole Kobi team have been great! Luke made the effort to meet me at my home, provided me with clear information and explained everything in detail. Emma has been very helpful and has gone out of her way to make the process easier for me. After instillation, Jack and the team left my house cleaner than when they started. Bit pricier than other competitors but I have a lot of faith in my choice. So far, I would highly recommend.06 March 2021
Easy to work with and Helpful
I decided to use only local companies and Luke was the only person that quoted what was requested and the price was very reasonable for what was offered.Ausnet caused some grief during the process but Kobi Energy solution help wherever they could making the process easier than it could have been. As soon as all the approvals were given the installation happened
The installation was seamless, very professional and tidy when it was complete.
Everything was handled well from the first contact to the connection to the grid and they went above what was needed to give me the best service possible.

Came ready and prepared
Luke from Kobi got the job because when he turned up to discuss the quote he had already done all the leg work. I figured if he worked this hard during the quoting process then it was a good sign.Inverter rating: 4/5

Great installation and great value
Overall, an excellent experience and I'd highly recommend Luke and his team to others in the area.Quoting process was really good - we got excellent panels and inverter for a great price, and the installation went well. There was some slight miscommunication around the timing of the install - rain in the week leading up caused timelines to get shuffled around, and I was a little unsure about what was happening at one point. But, everything was sorted out fairly quickly and worked out well. Kobi also helped us sort out grid connection - we managed to get it all connected in a little over a week, which was really great.
7 months later we asked Ravi: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
Everything appears to be going strong nearly a year on.29 November 2020

Instillation & Switched on in a day.
Quotation process was fine once we worked out what I wanted.Instillation went well, started at 7am and was finished and operational by 2pm on the day scheduled.
Simple Energy was a challenge to deal with meter consolidation and reconfiguration.
Very happy to recommend Kobi Energy.
3 months later we asked Mark: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
Yes my system has performed to my expectations and for the last 3 months I have been in credit.27 October 2020

Efficient and polite
The first contact was Luke actually made an appointment and turned up on time (big plus). He was happy to sit down and explain the best options without pushing to sell.Once we agreed they were out with 2 weeks installing. The guys that did the work were very professional and work efficiently as a team (also very well mannered with the understanding of home schooling taking place).
No issues recommended them to anyone.

Efficient and professional installation.
Luke and his team were entirely professional and answered all our questions. Quote was competitive and flexible.Our installation was on a shed roof and involved some extra work which was both professional and we'll priced.
All off the team have been polite and professional in their efforts to provide a quality service and experience. I have no issue with recommending them to anyone wanting the best solar solution.
Grid connection was all organised and it was only a few weeks before the energy provider completed the process.
Even after completion the follow up care taken by Kobi energy was reassuring and confirmed our decision to use this company for our install.

Thanks Kobi.

Solar installation made easy
Quotation process was simple - great explanation and answered questions readily, although the first invoice wasn't correct (amended promptly).Installation was prompt and efficient - the guys were polite and cleared up after themselves.
Detailed and helpful throughout the whole process
Luke from Kobi Energy was fantastic in working with me to understand and clarify what I wanted, adding ideas and identifying potential problems. I appreciated the time he spent working on the design and various iterations to maximise the output from my limited roof space. The quote was straightforward and Kobi was happy to provide additional details I asked for.The installers - Dylan, Pete and Mason - were professional, accommodating, kept me informed, and were considerate of me and my partner as we work from home.
Service and support was very prompt. Emma made sure that everything was in place from start to finish of the installation.
