☀️ Harness the Sun: Clean, Reliable Energy for Your Home and Business

Founded in 2017 in Auckland by renewable‑energy specialists Emma Chorley and Leighton Ngatai, SolarMount NZ set out to make sustainable power accessible to Kiwi homeowners and businesses alike. Frustrated by outdated grid dependence and rising electricity costs, they assembled a team of NABCEP‑certified designers, licensed electricians, and energy‑efficiency engineers to deliver turn‑key solar solutions.
Over the past eight years, SolarMount has installed over 3,500 residential rooftop systems—from urban townhouses in Wellington to rural farms in Canterbury—totaling more than 18 MW of capacity. Our commercial portfolio includes school multipurpose halls, agricultural irrigation pump stations, and warehouse installations, saving clients over NZD 2 million in cumulative energy expenses.
Central to our mission is an unwavering focus on quality and innovation. We partner with top-tier panel manufacturers (Tier 1 rated), inverters from industry leaders, and real‑time monitoring platforms that grant you full visibility into your energy production and consumption patterns. Every design undergoes a shade‑analysis survey and a detailed payback‑period assessment, ensuring optimal ROI and minimal environmental impact.
Our in‑house service division handles preventative maintenance, performance tuning, and battery‑storage system upgrades—keeping your array operating at peak efficiency. We’re proud members of the Sustainable Business Network and adhere to New Zealand’s Clean Energy Council guidelines. With SolarMount NZ, you’re not just installing solar—you’re investing in Aotearoa’s clean‑energy future.

1. Residential Solar Panel InstallationOur licensed technicians conduct an on‑site site survey, roof integrity analysis, and shading assessment before recommending panel arrays tailored to your home’s energy profile. We handle all electrical wiring, structural mounting, and NZEECS‑compliant documentation, ensuring a seamless installation process. Post‑commissioning, we activate real‑time monitoring so you can track generation and savings via a smartphone app. Every residential system comes with a 25‑year panel performance warranty and a 10‑year workmanship guarantee.
2. Commercial & Industrial Solar SolutionsFrom carports for corporate campuses to ground‑mount arrays on industrial plots, we design systems that maximize ROI under distributed‑generation tariffs. Our engineers model energy loads against local solar irradiance data and optimize inverter configurations for high‑efficiency performance. We manage grid‑connection approvals, liaise with network operators, and ensure compliance with Electricity Industry Participation Code (EIPC) requirements. Flexible financing options—including leasing and power‑purchase agreements—make large‑scale installations financially accessible.
3. Energy Storage & Battery IntegrationEnhance self‑consumption and resilience with our lithium‑ion battery systems, compatible with both new and existing solar installations. We size your battery bank based on peak‑load analysis and backup requirements, then integrate it via hybrid or DC‑coupled architectures. Intelligent energy‑management software automatically shifts loads and provides island‑mode backup during outages. Our technicians handle commissioning, software configuration, and annual performance audits to maintain optimal operation.
4. Solar Water Heating & Heat PumpsReduce reliance on electric resistance heating with solar‑thermal collectors and high‑efficiency heat pumps. We assess your household’s hot‑water demand and recommend a hybrid solution combining evacuated‑tube or flat‑plate collectors with a reverse‑cycle heat pump system. CORGI‑registered installers integrate the system with your plumbing, ensuring safe, code‑compliant installation. Smart controls enable priority solar heating, further reducing grid‑drawn power.
5. Energy‑Efficiency Audits & UpgradesOur certified energy‑auditors perform whole‑building assessments—inspecting insulation, glazing, HVAC systems, and lighting—to identify opportunities for savings up to 40%. We deliver a detailed report with prioritized retrofit recommendations, cost‑benefit analyses, and potential payback periods. Services include LED lighting retrofits, smart‑thermostat installation, and EV‑charging station integration. We also assist with government‑subsidy applications under EECA’s Warmer Kiwi Homes and Low‑Emission Vehicle programs.
6. Ongoing Maintenance & Performance MonitoringProactive maintenance is crucial to sustained solar‑array productivity. Our service plans include biannual cleaning, electrical‑component inspection, and firmware updates. Utilizing drone‑assisted thermography, we detect hotspot anomalies and micro‑cracks before they impact performance. Remote monitoring flags performance drops, and our rapid‑response teams correct faults—ensuring your system consistently meets production targets.
7. Design & Engineering ConsultancyLeverage our in‑house R&D team for bespoke renewable‑energy consultancy—from conceptual feasibility studies to detailed engineering packages. We provide structural calculations, PV‑system modelling (PVSyst), and feasibility reports that underpin bankable proposals. Ideal for architects, developers, and councils planning net‑zero projects, our consultancy services translate sustainability goals into technical realities.
