About Solar Run
Solar Run is bringing homeowners a simple, affordable way to power their homes with the sun, and to get control back of their energy. Our passion is to help Australians become more energy independent. After a tumultuous 10 years of constant power company price increases, black-outs and coal-fired power plant failures, we're seeing more Australians searching for a better solution.
Recent statistics from the Clean Energy Council tell us people are paying nearly $1500 a year on their energy bills because electricity prices are so high. It's no wonder solar panels are going up on rooftops around the country at a lightning pace. We call this the solar revolution, and Solar Run are ready to provide Australians with solar panel installation, solar hot water, solar battery storage and LED lighting to bring their energy bills down.
By introducing some of our solar and energy efficiency products in your home, you can realise real savings on your energy bill and protect your family budget from the endless sky rocketing electricity prices. What's more, you can feel great that you're giving back to this great country by generating renewable energy.It's easy to take back control. Stop relying on your energy providers and join us in the solar revolution.

Solar does not perform anywhere near what was proposed. Solar was meant to be able to except batteries at a latter date now i am told would need to change inverter.

Seem to be working to full capacity

The installation went smoothly & easily. It was all done in 2 days. Last minute I asked to add 8 more panels & it was no trouble at all. Sam organized it & the new panels were there within a couple of hours & being installed. The 2 installers & electrician were lovely. Quick & efficient. I am very happy with everything & would definitely recommend this company.

I have had the system on for 4 days so I can't really give a good comment. All I can say is I'm very happy with the panels so far. Everything is working as it should.
Solar Inverter - Goodwe
I have a Goodwe Inverter & an Alpha Inverter. They're working really well. Quite small & compact. Very neat looking. The apps for the 2 inverters are really good!
Battery - Alpha ESS
The 10KW battery is very compact, unobtrusive & looks good. The house uses the power from the battery all night & starts recharging at this time of year around 8am.

Very professional in knowledge of products upfront on costs and generation of unit had answers to all our questions and arranged monitoring system
Installer Comments
fast and efficient communication. The salesman even came out to explain all the questions I had and showed me exactly where everything would be going. Only 6 weeks from initial contact until installation. The electrical inspector was the tardy one. It took another 6 weeks before he came to inspect and issue the compliance certificate, but he left my system with a fault that I am unable to rectify, so I now have to call on the installer to return and fix the fault !!

I don't know yet. I have to wait until the fault is fixed. It was working well until the inspector came to inspect.
Installer Comments
The installation required optimisers on each panel due to shading and different orientations on the roof. The cabling was carefully concealed, the software and app was explained to me fully, and everything went as planned. The SolarEdge inverter and associated monitoring is working perfectly, and the system output is exactly as predicted by Solar Run, as is the self-consumption/export split. The company rep, Dirk, was honest in not trying to sell me a battery nor running the off-peak hot water circuit off our solar power, but has left those options open for later down the track if financial considerations change.

Output is as expected - the 370W panels are well constructed and their output is also very good considering shading and orientation at this time of the year (installed in June).
Installer Comments
The pricing was competitive and the company was prepared to give me the panels and inverter of my choice, largely influenced by your information, at a reasonable extra cost. Installation was expeditious and a need to resite two panels to avoid rain run-off was rapidly accomplished. The array has meen working satisfactorily since installation and I am aware of the output via my app.
