Reviews From Solar Power System Owners

We have asked people that brought a solar power system after getting 3 quotes through My Solar Quotes how their solar power systems are going! We asked:
What size system did you install?
How long has your solar power system been running for?
How did you find the solar installation?
How have you found the performance of the solar power system?
Do you have any other comments that you would like to share with New Zealanders thinking about going solar?

Review Date: 11/02/2026

Size: 15kW

Running for: 6 weeks

Expected pay back period: 12 years

Comments on the installation: "The solar installation was them bolting onto a sloping table our contractors had built. They did their bit well. The cost of the mounting table was much higher than anticipated due to the sloping ground and poor soil stability"

Comments on the system performance: "Production exceeds expectations but the inverter was sized incorrectly so we struggle to process the power produced."

Advice: "Ground mounting of solar panels is not cost effective on sloping ground."
