Real People on ShineHub Solar + Battery Systems

“At every level the [ShineHub] staff went beyond expectation in their professionalism, blending technical ability, customer care and courtesy in uncommon measures. Accordingly, I recommend ShineHub without reservation.” Paul Cockburn, NSW

“We were recommended a smaller system as the simulation they ran showed slightly lower efficiency compared to the 21 panel system we wanted. The 18 panels was to give us a better result which meant less money for ShineHub. I don’t know many companies who would be so transparent! Every person I came across was friendly, knowledgeable and patient.” Sarah Sims, VIC

These are the cases where solar and batteries were a good fit – but it’s not always the case! Meet a customer we turned away after working out that solar wasn’t the right choice for her:

Annie from Geelong

At ShineHub, our mission is to help you find the solar + battery system that is right for you. We don’t believe in pushing our products onto our customers – we want to offer tangible savings and lifestyle improvements. We want every ShineHub solar customer to save money. And, if we don’t think our systems can help you save money, we’ll tell you so!

 “Just a quick note to say what a useful and informative night… after discussion with the experts I have decided that it is not economical for me to add a battery at this stage… It was so good to be able to speak with someone who was unbiased and gave me an honest answer without feeling like I was going to be pressured into buying something.”  Annie, VIC
