NRG Solar from the moment of contact to end of installation have offered service excellence. Its reassuring you have a company that is reliable and think of the client and whats best for them. On first contact with Michael, his many years of experience was apparent. He just knew what was best and everything was set up with ease. Special mention also to the installers Stefan & Jarrad who made everything work and setup also Sarah back in the office doing all the paperwork. It was great not having to do any chasing it was all done for me. The Fronius Inverter,winaico panels and the Tesla power

Very happy with our experience. The sales person clearly stepped us through all the details and benefits, evaluated our current usage and could answer all our questions on the solar panels, battery, placement and warranties. The installation and after service was just as good, following through on the promises and ensuring that we were 100% satisfied.

NRG solar is one of the best companies Ive ever dealt with. From the first enquiry and even 3 years later they have been nothing but helpful. We LOVE our system. The install went very well and we are even producing more power than they suggested we would. I have gladly recommended NRG to friends and family who have also got nothing but nice things to say about them. Trust me you cant go wrong with NRG

NRG have installed both Solar and a Tesla battery on our home. Very happy with the service and knowledge of the staff. They were the standout after obtaining several quotes for both price and attention to detail.
