How does solar generate such a high ROI?
As well as generating energy, solar power can effectively generate income—as a return on your investment through savings on power bills. These savings effectively pay for the system within a relatively short time. After that—FREE power!—effectively a good return of profit through the ongoing savings.
We give you an expected ROI by analysing your site, using NIWA’s historical sunshine data, and current energy prices.
These graphs show an expected return and payback projection based on a 4.16kW system, saving $0.30c per kWh of grid supply.
The sooner you go solar, the greater the return ~ so why hold off on a good investment?
With the solar technology available today, it has become economically viable—and even profitable—to install solar power for many businesses, farms, schools and homes.
Solar Photo Voltaic (PV) systems are cost-effective, easy to install and do not require resource or building consent, making them the clear contender for domestic and commercial auxiliary energy production both now and in the future.
Still have questions? Give us a call!
Can’t afford solar right now?
Not a problem!
Don’t let that stop you! We offer finance to enable you to take advantage of solar right away. And because energy cost savings from solar power offset against finance interest, you’ll still be winning.

We have had a 3.5KW system of 14 solar panels fitted November 2016 and are enjoying the benefits.
Sunergy came recommended by a friend and I found the installers very efficient and reliable. They are very good at what they do and are neat and fast. We enjoyed having them working here installing the panels, as they were extremely efficient and happy to explain what they were doing, even on a very hot day!
The system they advised enabled our hot water and night store in the winter to soak up excess power that would otherwise go to the grid. As a real extra in the summer, we can charge our electric car during the day! Overall it has been a great purchase and well done to Sunergy.
Thank you from

Sunergy was recommended to Pic's peanut Butter by another business in Nelson. Andy Wells was incredibly good to deal with, always responding promptly to questions as we moved through the evaluation phase. Once we signed the contract the process leading into installation and the installation itself ran incredibly smoothly. Sunergy were very respectful of the site health and safety requirements and worked well around site operational requirements.
I have no hesitation in recommending Sunergy as a go-to for commercial solar power installations.

We are “over the moon” with our new Sunergy Solar system. It has completely exceeded our expectations and some, the system runs the 132kw irrigation pump effortlessly and with power to spare pumping up to 240 litres per second.
The whole Sunergy team put in a lot of effort to get this large install off the ground, and they never failed to impress. They were extremely professional, their passion and enthusiasm is infectious, we are so thrilled with the array of panels and look forward to the ongoing savings.
We have had and continue to have a lot of interest from locals and the wider community.
Thank you so much Andy, Dan and the whole Sunergy Solar Team.

Andy from Sunergy helped us apply for funding via the Sustainability Contestable Fund, for the system they installed.
Andy was great support and offered friendly and professional advice throughout the process. Our application was successful, which I put down to Andy's excellent advice. He was also a godsend as we worked our way through the Ministry paperwork. Andy is always prompt to reply to emails and goes above and beyond to source information if he doesn't have the answer immediately to hand.
The installation of our system went very smoothly. All workers on site were professional and friendly with our children—answering questions and explaining the system to us all! I highly recommend Andy and the team at Sunergy—we couldn't be more pleased with our system or the service provided.

We are totally rapt with the new system Sunergy installed and can’t recommend Andy and the team highly enough. They have been outstanding from the initial planning and help with funding applications to the installation and ongoing commitment to the Island and the education of our future ratepayers.
The 19kW solar power system including battery storage has dramatically reduced energy consumption, increased our energy resilience, helped us begin our journey of replacing non-renewable energy sources and reduced our carbon emissions.
The installation of a monitoring screen in our school office and the work Andy and the team from Sunergy are doing around educating our students means they can not only watch power being generated in real-time but have an understanding of the whole process.

Hi to the team at Sunergy,
Just to let you know I’m loving the new solar and it’s working very well, the guys have done an excellent job with my installation, they went to great lengths designing and orientating the panels to look their best on my roof. So well in fact this month I produced 60 KWH more than NIWA’s Solar estimation for May.
Sunergy clearly care that I received a great product and at a great price, plus the upgraded thin, strengthened panels were a real bonus, to date they have been getting plenty of praise from neighbours and friends.
I’m so pleased with the whole process that I’m happy to recommend Sunergy to others.
Thanks again guys
Tony
Are Your Solar Panels Secure?
Do you know if your solar panels are being installed in compliance with AS/NZS 1170 standards? This standard is crucial for ensuring that your panels stay securely attached to your roof, especially in challenging weather conditions.
It’s easy to assume your installer has considered all the engineering details, but AS/NZS 1170 is a structural engineering standard—something that goes beyond standard electrical knowledge. Always confirm with your installer that they’ve adhered to these requirements, ensuring the structural integrity of your solar installation.
Don’t take the risk—verify that your solar investment is safe and secure! ... See MoreSee Less

After an absolutely fantastic 2 days at the SEANZ 2024 conference, we are stoked to have come away with the Ecotricity NZ Best Environmental Impact Award for 2024; adding to our 2022 award and 2021 runner up.
The 2024 award was for our waste minimisation efforts on the Woolworths New Zealand Waimak Junction project, and also our work to retain our Toitū Envirocare EnviroMark Gold certification.
Thank you to everyone who has chosen to work with Sunergy, we absolutely love what we do, and we're extremely proud to be leading the way in sustainable business practices in the NZ solar industry.

When will our government realise that shipping our plastic to the Philippines is really just making it Australia's problem. Product Stewardship and taxes on plastic are required if we want to truly put a financial dollar value on the environmental impact of our waste. We cannot continue to make our waste someone else's problem.

Yes, we do need a lot more electricity generation (and storage) in NZ, but with our landfills filling fast and a construction industry that is responsible for over 40% of that waste to landfill, we must do it in a sustainable manner.
Sunergy Solar are leading by example, being the only Toitū Envirocare EnviroMark Gold certified solar installer in NZ. What does this actually mean though? It means we practice what we preach. It's easy to say you care about the environment, it's difficult to prove it. At Sunergy, we believe actions speak louder than words.
In December 2023 Sunergy commissioned a 106kW rooftop solar array for Woolworths New Zealand on their new Waimak Junction store, and this is a story of the waste from that project. This is what environmental stewardship looks like.

The team at Sunergy are incredibly excited to see the final MoE Sustainablity Fund school system get installed at Waituna Creek School.
Working with the rural schools over these projects has been so enjoyable, as getting to be a part of a tight-knit community for a small amount of time is an opportunity not every company is afforded. A huge thank-you to these schools for trusting us for their sustainability journey. ... See MoreSee Less
