Our core services include installing solar panels, solar battery storage, EV chargers, and general electrical upgrades.

Approximately 43% of households in Marion have installed solar panels.
Solar panel design and installation
We design and install custom solar systems matched to your actual usage patterns, not just panel capacity, helping to shorten your payback period with systems sized for Marion’s 4.83 kWh per square metre per day solar irradiance.
Battery storage integration
Solar batteries store excess daytime power for nighttime use, covering evening and overnight consumption. A typical 16.0 kWh battery system costs around $13,700 and can save up to 90% on power bills with energy independence from the mains grid.
EV charger fitting
Homeowners can charge electric vehicles using solar power by pairing panels with a dedicated EV charger. Installation typically takes 1-2 days and significantly reduces electricity costs by shifting fuel spending away from the grid.
