I did a lot of homework on solar providers/installers before I spoke to anyone. I saw the $3k systems offered on social media and laughed. I saw the Google bought positions for $6k systems (panels only). Not one had a realistic, quality 1st Tier panels, with quality components through the install, from the panel, to the inverter, to the screws holding it all to my roof. Then there is the service. I was lucky to meet and sort the first part of my equation (solar panels) and a later view to add storage, when it was more affordable and the tech suitable. A no nonsense discussion on the capabilities of the system to be installed. No ridiculous statements that I’d be making $100’s each quarter. Just the satisfaction I had the best solar panels on the market, Q-Cells. Initially my power bills were reduced by a decent amount. Then what was part 1b, get rid of electric storage HWS. It blew up earlier this year, so an LPG bottle system was installed. So now hot water and cook top gas. The biggest users of power? Oven, and one air cond (older window type, being replaced soon). The main air conditioner is an Inverter. The new Fridge (old one blew up 2 years ago) now an Inverter. Clothes dryer (I have mobility issues), Inverter, it uses 1/4 of the power the washer does! So 2 years down the track, I have finally gotten power consumption down. My last power bill (winter) ~$170 for the quarter. With no power hungry electric HWS, I expect this summer to have me possibly reach equality ($0) or near enough, maybe even they paying me. This is 2 and a bit years in. smart Energy Group, and especially Nathan are an honest, up front, professional supplier/installer of solar systems that are simply quality.
