Lightning Energy

Lightning Energy designed and installed our solar and battery professionally and easy. Their knowledge and advice was terrific. I had an issue of changing my electricity provider being that the solar feeds refund was not connected. The team at lightning energy were very helpful and resolved the issue. I'm impressed with them

I received several quotes from different solar and battery installers, but some seemed unrealistically cheap and were offering lower-quality systems. After speaking with Josh and his team at Lightning Energy and comparing their quote with the others, I decided to go with them and I'm really glad I did. Going into this, I knew nothing about solar or battery systems. Josh took the time to explain everything clearly and presented a few different options that suited my home and energy needs. There was never any pressure to overspend or be upsold, just honest advice and a system that was right for me. They also supplied and installed an EV charger that integrates seamlessly with the solar and battery system, making everything work together perfectly. The quote was accurate, transparent, and there were no hidden costs or surprises along the way. A big shout out also goes to the installation team, led by Matt. They were professional, friendly, and incredibly hardworking throughout the entire installation. They arrived on schedule, kept me informed of their progress, and completed the installation on my double-storey home in just two days. Their workmanship was first class, and they left everything neat and tidy once the job was finished. The system has been performing flawlessly. During the day, my home is powered by solar and the battery, and I only draw electricity from the grid overnight to take advantage of the cheaper off-peak tariffs to charge my battery and EV. The system has been set up exactly how I wanted it, and it's already making a huge difference to my electricity costs. A huge thank you to Josh, Matt, and the entire Lightning Energy team. Their knowledge, honesty, workmanship, and customer service were exceptional from start to finish. If you're looking for a quality solar, battery, and EV charger installation, I highly recommend Lightning Energy.

We had solar panels and battery storage installed by Lightning Energy and couldn’t be happier with the result. Josh came out to visit our house before giving a quote, something a lot of other installers didn’t bother doing, which really helped us pick the right setup. Matt, the lead electrician, was fantastic, professional, punctual, and clearly knew his stuff. He walked me through the whole system, answered all my questions, and left everything clean and tidy. The installation was smooth from start to finish, and our system has been running perfectly since. Highly recommend Lightning Energy to anyone in Melbourne looking to go solar!

Quite happy with the system. George Fotopoulos patiently priced up a gazillion different options we wanted to evaluate, before landing on what I believe to be an excellent system at a fair price. Highly customized, high-quality install with the exact roof brackets we wanted, the panels installed at the angle we wanted in the exact places we wanted for easy maintenance, the battery located in the exact spot we wanted, and backup-functionality implemented the way we wanted. They were also able to flexibly push out the installation date for two weeks after a last-minute complication on our end. Only downsides were occasional confusion due to the high number of quotes floating around, but Lightning Energy were quite responsive throughout the process and afterwards.

We have just had Lightning Energy complete a 37kw solar installation with 75 solar panels and a 48kw Sigen battery solution. We would not hesitate to recommend Lightning Energy. The whole process from quote ( Blake ) to installation was seamless and we knew we were in good hands. A huge thank you to Ryan and the crew who worked tirelessly in difficult windy, wet and cold conditions with good humour and complete professionalism. Every query was answered and the whole team went above and beyond to ensure a successful installation and one that we were happy with and understood. Thanks team Lightning Energy, you guys have been brilliant and thoroughly deserve the recognition and recommendation. Cheers Martin.

The Lightning Energy team were among the most hardworking people I've ever encountered. I was receiving answers to queries well into the evening. They were honest if there were unforeseen delays and advised me accordingly. They were friendly and always approachable. Even after everything was concluded, they still checked in on me by their own initiative and helped me with some queries. When I compare my experience to the experiences other people have had with other companies, my experience with Lightning Energy was very clearly superior. I have already recommended them to my friends and colleagues.

We have had an EV charger installed by the Lightning Energy team first 30 months ago, then a heat-pump hot-water and split-system AC supplied & installed in March '26, and now a whole home rooftop solar and battery system supplied & installed. All communications have been clear, prompt and relevant. The advice given has been excellent while not over-catering to our requirements. They have worked hard to keep the systems affordable with all relevant rebates, and the installation work has been effective, careful and tidy.
