Half done, mess
No instructions on how to connect to system via app. When blackout only half the house runs off battery. Rubbish left in gutters causing overflow when it rained, cable ties and wires. Conduit put in roof space that has blocked in items stored there. Large holes left in the roof sarking, where they bought in conduits

Hi Seamus,
Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback — we’re really sorry to hear about your experience. What you’ve described is not the standard we expect from our installations.
We’d like to look into this urgently — especially the connection instructions, blackout coverage, roof sarking, conduit placement, and cleanup issues. If we’ve missed something, we want to make it right.
Could you please contact us at 1300800963 with your job details so we can arrange an inspection and a plan to fix the problems?
Thank you again for bringing this to our attention — we appreciate the opportunity to improve and to get this resolved for you.
We deliberately allowed some time…
We deliberately allowed some time before writing this review to gain real-world experience with our system.
Verdict to date: Power Smart Solutions delivered a strong overall outcome.
They installed an 8.8kW solar system in May 2024, followed by a 19.2kWh battery in September 2025.
While not absolutely everything went to plan, we’ve still opted for a 5-star rating. In today’s Australia, finding truly flawless service has become very rare.
What matters more is how issues are handled—and in our case, matters were ultimately resolved.
When it comes to solar and battery systems, we strongly recommend rigorously self-educating before engaging an installer. A basic technical understanding puts you in control and helps align expectations on both sides.
Initially, we requested a battery-ready inverter. In practice, the inverter needed to be replaced at the time of battery installation. Additionally, the originally planned battery location in the garage had to be changed on the day, which was a little frustrating—but it was eventually sorted out.
The overall system performs very well, and the Sungrow app is a significant improvement over the previous GoodWe app we had been using.
Based on our research, we also requested blackout protection. This feature is yet to be fully tested, as we haven’t experienced any outages longer than 30 minutes since installation—but it’s reassuring to have in place.
After analysing system performance and figures to date, our next step will be integrating with an automated wholesale electricity platform to further optimise returns.
Overall, a solid result, a well-performing system, and a company we’re comfortable recommending—particularly for informed customers who take the time to understand what they’re investing in.

Hi David & Christine,
Thank you for your feedback. We understand the recent storms have caused a grid outage in your area, which is understandably frustrating. We’d like to reassure you that your battery system is operating as designed during this event, and your essential circuits — including power points and lighting — continue to run from your backup supply.
If there is anything you feel is not operating as it should, or if you’d like us to run a remote system check, please reach out to our support team and we’ll be happy to assist.

Not the best experience
As hubby and I both work with contracts and a lot of tradespeople we will not be recommending this company to any of associates. We were told one price and agreed upon it. Then, we were told that we had additional prices. Put on because the sales team did not know what they were doing. Then, we agreed upon that the installers got to the house and then They said they couldn't do what we agreed upon they had to take panels off.
Which they discounted but this deal did not make up for all stress that my husband was put through with this company

Antwort von PowerSmart Solutions
Hi Melissa,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re truly sorry to hear about the stress and frustration you and your husband experienced — this is not the standard we aim to deliver.
Unfortunately, our sales team were not aware that you system on the roof had micro-inverters installed, as this could not be identified from ground level.
The pricing changes and installation issues you described are understandably disappointing, and we apologise for the inconvenience caused. Situations like this usually arise from unexpected site conditions or miscommunication, and we take full responsibility for ensuring our teams are clearer and more accurate from the beginning.
We appreciate you acknowledging the discount offered, but we understand that it doesn’t make up for the stress caused.

Salesperson booked wrong day
Salesperson booked wrong day. And energy company had not given clearance anyway which cost me a day off work.
Information advised to me about process was different to the process on the day.
Not clearly advised advantages of solar do not commence until energy company changes meter box. I had 8 weeks to organise this for the same day that I had to take off work unpaid if someone told me this, now I have to take another unpaid day off work.
I was compensated financially for the first mistake and rightfully so but still should not have happened.
Messages to me seem to have my name spelt incorrectly.

Antwort von PowerSmart Solutions
Hi Glen,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m truly sorry to hear about the frustration you experienced — your situation was far from the standard we aim to deliver.
It’s unacceptable that your installation was booked for the wrong day and that the necessary clearance from your energy retailer hadn’t been confirmed. We understand how valuable your time is, and you should never have had to take unnecessary unpaid leave. While we’re glad we were able to compensate you for the initial error, we completely agree that the situation should not have occurred in the first place.
We also apologise for the confusion around the installation process. You should have been clearly informed that certain solar benefits only commence once the energy company updates the meter, and we understand how this lack of clarity caused further inconvenience. This is feedback we’re taking seriously, and we are reviewing our communication process to ensure customers receive complete and accurate information from the start.
Finally, we’re sorry your name was misspelled in our messages — attention to detail matters, and we will ensure this is corrected.
If you’re open to it, we’d appreciate the chance to speak with you directly to make sure everything moving forward is smooth and properly managed. Please reach out to us at 1300800963, and we’ll be happy to assist.
Thank you again for your honest feedback — it genuinely helps us improve.
