What Springers Solar does

Springers Solar is a privately held, family-owned solar design and installation company headquartered in Lawnton, Queensland, Australia, founded in 2002 by Brian, Joe, and Cheryl Springer. Now led by second-generation directors Joe, Eddie, and Michael Springer, the company employs 60+ staff across four Queensland locations (Lawnton HQ, Capalaba, Warana/Sunshine Coast, and a Brisbane commercial office) and has served more than 5,000 customers over 24 years. Its core business is the design, engineering, installation, and after-sales servicing of custom solar energy systems for residential, commercial, off-grid, and vehicle-based (4WD/caravan/marine) applications, with end-to-end delivery handled by in-house RPEQ engineers, PV designers, electricians, installers, and project managers — no subcontractors are used at any stage.

The company does not manufacture proprietary solar hardware; instead it integrates third-party components from a broad portfolio of tier-one brands including Tesla (Powerwall 3, Wall Connector), SolarEdge, Sigenergy, Sungrow, Fronius, Enphase, Canadian Solar, AIKO, REC, Trina Solar, and SunPower. Springers holds Premium Certified Tesla Installer, Gold Master Electricians, Clean Energy Council Approved Solar Retailer, and NETCC Approved Seller credentials, and was recognised as Queensland's #1 Battery Installer in 2025 (Solaris Solar Nerds, based on Clean Energy Regulator data) and as a Smart Energy Excellence Award winner in 2025 and 2026. A 1.2MW rooftop solar installation for Brisbane Airport's Multi-Level Carpark demonstrates capability for large-scale commercial and infrastructure projects.

Revenue is generated primarily through one-time project fees for system installation (quote-based after complimentary site inspection, inclusive of federal STC rebates), supplemented by an online e-commerce store at shop.springers.com.au selling DIY components, recurring after-sales service revenue, and RPEQ engineering services for commercial clients. Distribution is fully direct: in-house field sales, physical retail storefronts, the e-commerce platform, and an Origin Energy Preferred Solar Installer referral partnership. Customer segments span residential homeowners, commercial businesses, off-grid rural/remote properties, and the 4WD/caravan/marine auxiliary power market, with directors projecting 30% annual growth as of March 2022.

Broad incumbents

• Origin Energy: Major Australian energy retailer with a solar installation arm and feed-in tariff products. Already a Springers Solar channel partner (Origin refers customers); broader incumbent comparable that competes for the same residential solar customers.
• AGL Energy: Australia's largest energy retailer, now offering solar and battery installations through AGL Solar. Comparable to Springers Solar in residential/commercial solar product offering but operates at much greater scale and as part of a broader energy retail portfolio.
• EnergyAustralia: Large Australian energy retailer (owned by CLP Group) offering solar and battery solutions. Comparable to Springers Solar in residential solar and battery product offerings, but operates as part of a national retail portfolio at much larger scale.

Emerging players

• Reposit Power: Australia-based battery and energy storage company with VPP (virtual power plant) capability. Comparable to Springers Solar in battery storage focus but with a more software/grid-services orientation rather than pure installation.

Direct peers

Directly comparable to Springers Solar in product offering and customer segments (homeowners and businesses seeking energy independence).
• Infinite Energy: Australian solar and battery installer serving residential and commercial customers across multiple states. Comparable to Springers Solar in product offering (solar panels, inverters, batteries) and go-to-market through direct in-house installation.

• Solar Choice: Australian solar comparison and installation platform connecting customers with vetted installers. Overlaps with Springers Solar in residential and commercial solar EPC, although Solar Choice operates more as an aggregator/lead-generation marketplace than direct installer.

Regional players

• 1Solar: Australian solar installer with regional focus, offering residential and commercial solar installations. Comparable to Springers Solar in core solar EPC services but typically operates in different geographic markets within Australia.

Others

• Greenwood Solutions: Australian solar and electrical services provider operating in adjacent regional markets. Comparable to Springers Solar in residential solar installation service model, though smaller in scale and breadth.
