Solahart Industries

What Solahart Industries does

Solahart Industries Pty Ltd is an Australian residential and commercial solar company founded in 1953 and headquartered in Rydalmere, NSW, with regional operations across Perth, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Hobart. It is a subsidiary of Japan's Paloma Co. Ltd. (since 2001) and operates exclusively through a nationwide network of authorized, CEC-accredited dealers who provide on-site assessments, installation and after-sales service. The company has installed over one million solar hot water systems worldwide and over one million solar PV panels in Australia.

The product portfolio spans solar PV panels (Solahart Silhouette N-type bifacial, SunCell, SunCell Plus, 480DH2), multi-vendor inverters and battery storage (GoodWe, SolarEdge, Tesla Powerwall, Enphase), EV chargers (GoodWe, Tesla, SolarEdge, FIMER), solar hot water systems (thermosiphon and split configurations), heat pump water heaters (Atmos Eco and Frost series), and the Solahart PowerStore — Australia's first solar-smart electric water heater that stores excess rooftop generation as thermal energy. The Solahart Home Energy Management System (HEMS) connects these assets with weather-based solar forecasting through the AtHome web app and the Combined Energy Technologies Energy Management Unit.

Revenue is generated primarily through one-time equipment sales bundled with professional installation, supplemented by recurring service and maintenance contracts and interest-free financing economics via Zip Money. Customer concentration is dominated by individual Australian homeowners, with a smaller commercial segment (e.g., Club Mount Lewis, St Augustine's College). Pricing is quote-based rather than published, and federal/state incentives such as STCs and the Cheaper Home Batteries Program materially affect affordability. Six Canstar Blue Most Satisfied Customers awards (2019, 2020, 2023, 2024, 2025) plus the 2026 Trusted Brands Award for Solar Panel Installers indicate brand-led consumer trust as a core commercial lever.
