What Solarpro does
Solarpro is a privately-held Australian solar installation company founded in 2009, headquartered in Allambie Heights, Sydney, that designs, sells, and installs rooftop solar power systems for residential and commercial customers across Sydney's Northern Beaches, North Shore, and Eastern Suburbs. The company's core offering is its proprietary 'Smart Solar Power System' portfolio — tiered as Standard, Premium, and Premium Plus — built on SolarEdge optimized inverter technology with panel-level power optimization, which the company claims delivers up to 25% more energy than traditional string inverter architectures. All installers are SolarEdge Trusted Installers and REC Certified Solar Professionals, and the company provides 24-hour free monitoring of every SolarEdge system it deploys alongside a 12-year PV system warranty.
Beyond the core solar generation product, Solarpro bundles and installs a broad ecosystem of add-on modules including Tesla Powerwall and SolarEdge Home Battery storage systems, EV charging with solar-first inverter capability, Building Integrated PV (BIPV) panels, smart thermal energy storage (hot water tank and home heater load-shifting), and solar pool heating. The company operates a direct sales model through a physical showroom plus on-site consultations, supplemented by partnership channels including Willoughby City Council's bulk-buy scheme (exclusive partnership since 2021), Zero Emissions Sydney North (preferred installer since 2020), and the Clean Energy Council New Energy Tech Approved Seller program.
Revenue is generated almost entirely through one-time installation contracts on residential homes (primary segment) and selected mid-market commercial properties (e.g., Three Beans Café Group's 40kW system, Roseville Cinemas' 39.9kW system). Commercial battery rebate subsidies are passed through to customers under Australia's Federal Battery Rebate. The company is independently owned and operated by founder and Managing Director David Veal, has completed over 8,000 installations across its 14-year operating history, and ranks in the top 3% of Australian Tesla installers and as a top 10 APAC solar company per Energy Business Review 2024.
