Written by the company
We got ripped off on solar. So we learned everything, so you don't have to. We set out to power our own home with the sun. We did our homework, we trusted the installer who seemed different from the rest, and we paid close to $100,000. We were charged for German batteries and handed cheap knock-offs. The system couldn't get through a normal week, and we spent five years putting it right. Then we realised our story wasn't rare. Around one in three Australian solar systems is now an orphan, abandoned by the company that installed it. So we built Why Solar to make sure what happened to us stops with us. We don't sell solar. We vet the installers, and we tell you the truth, even when it earns us nothing.
