Solar Quotes was an invaluable source of information. Enabled me to sort through misleading information provided and understand which companies were providing quality and value in their quotes.8 months later we asked Phil: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
We are thrilled with the performance and reduction to our power costs.Our installation is a valuable asset for our home.

They actually came to site, looked and talked it through.8 months later we asked Alfie: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
only been in since September 2018 so not a full year yet, so far so good26 August 2018
In terms of the system, I have had it for just over 1 month and I am averaging 27kw per day, noting the average for Cairns this time of year is around 23kw, however I do note that we have had a lot of cloud free days in August.

More clarity with quotes. Quotes should be for panels, inverters and for installation and other equipment.8 months later we asked Les: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
System is good and last 2 power bills down by 60 per cent. Put in 46 panels. Putting in extra panels important. If in a situation of less light panels are still meeting power requirements. When I get my electric operating I may need to add some more panels. It is advantageous to put in more than the recommended number of panels. May require some batteries to store the extra power.I think people contemplating going solar should also try to arrange finance so that repayments on the system do not exceed the saving in "on going" electricity purchases.

Solar quotes was extremely helpful in enabling me to contact a number of good companies. I got quotes from at least 5 companies and gained a whole lot of information about solar systems. I was then able to decide on exactly what system I wanted. The prices ranged from $6000 to $8000 for the same system. I then looked at the quality of the service I had received up to that point. Sunny Solar had a good price and had given me a lot of useful information and good service.I really appreciate the contribution from Solar Quotes. I was able to hit the ground running.
Thanks a lot

Of the 3 solar installers, I got only 2 quotes in reply. (Mark Group did not tender)Naked Energy was over expensive - with quoted items of $2200 for "commissioning" and $1080 for miscellaneous cabling, fittings etc. Their sales office was well staffed, with brochures, video displays & presentations etc (high overheads ?)
Sunny Solar was a father & son outfit operating out of a backyard shed - who seemed to know their business ... and quoted an all-inclusive & reasonable price.
They answered all my questions & queries and were very helpful with alternate suggestions for a better system.
I have awarded the job to Sunny Solar. They haven't as yet started the installation but have submitted the appropriate paperwork to Ergon Energy to start the ball rolling.

The Samil Power / SolaRiver system has fulfilled my expectations. Once set-up, it does its thing with minimal input by me.The recent decrease of the feed-in tariff from 9.07 c / kWh to 6.53 c / kWh (due to the lifting of the Carbon Tax) will affect my bottom-line power savings.
I therefore eagerly await the availability of light-weight, low-cost and energy efficient battery storage banks, whereby my solar power system can be charging up and storing energy for my use at night. My use of reticulated grid power would then be much less.

Very friendly and no high pressure sales tactics like other companies I dealt with.
They installed a 6KW System which I didn't have to pay for until after installation.
I paid $7400.00 and that was with a dual tracking internet connected inverter so I can view the system online.

Excellent customer service and knowledge.
Sunny Solar Cairns were polite, professional and provided excellent customer service from the initial phone consultation through to final setup of the monitoring App.Sunny Solar was the only company to actually get on the roof to measure up. Clayton then provided practical advice on system sizing based on our individual household needs.
I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
Ken.
