Lance and I recently had the privilege of representing Esolar at Fronius' Country Cross-Over Exchange in Queenstown — and we were proud to be one of only a couple of NZ companies invited, among a crowd mostly made up of installers from across Australia.

We earned our spot as Captain's Pick, which made it even more special to be there. Huge thanks to Fronius for the recognition and for putting on three days of real value — connecting with the Fronius team and our State Manager, Pat, swapping ideas with fellow installers, taking on a wide range of exhilarating activities from clay bird shooting and off-roading to jet boating and a wine tour, and getting a first look at the new Fronius Reserva Pro battery ahead of its wider release.

Thanks again for the amazing experience, Fronius Australia!

Esolar is proud to be the major sponsor of the Appleby School Country Fair this year 🌻

This one's close to home for us — Appleby School is where our daughter goes, and where I (Alex) went too. Supporting this community isn't just good business for us, it's personal.

Small country schools like Appleby rely on fundraisers like this to keep going, and every visitor makes a real difference. So whether you're local or coming from further afield, we'd love to see you there — bring the family, grab some kai, and help support a great cause.

📅 Saturday 5th September
🕙 10am – 2pm

Can't wait to see the wider community come together for this one. See you there!

Not every great solar system starts on a roof. 🏡

This lifestyle property in the Nelson region had the land, the sunshine, and the ambition — so we designed a ground-mounted 16kWp system that ticks every box.
34 x REC Alpha Pure-RX panels running through a 12kW Fronius GEN24 3-phase hybrid inverter means this system is generating serious power today, with battery storage ready to be added whenever our clients want it.

From bare frame to full array, it's always satisfying to watch these come together. 🙌

Behind every solar system we install, you'll find some — or all — of this crew. 🖤🧡
Professional. Skilled. Genuinely passionate about what they do.
If you've had an Esolar installation, these are the people who made it happen — and they take real pride in doing the job right.
Big appreciation post for the install team today. You legends. 💪

🏆 What an honour -- Esolar has been named New Zealand Partner of the Year at the REC ANZ Excellence Awards 2025!

Every time we receive this recognition, Lance and I are reminded of just how much goes into what we do — and how little of it would be possible without our incredible team.

To our crew — thank you. You turn up every single day, you do the hard work in the heat and the rain, you take pride in every job, and you are the reason we can hold an award like this with confidence. We are so proud of each and every one of you.

Thank you to REC Solar Australia & New Zealand for continuing to support us and for recognizing what we've built together. And to our amazing customers — your trust in us means everything. Here's to more sunshine ahead! ☀️
