Elite Energy Co.
Connor personally follows up after installation — and 39 reviewers mention his team cleans up and walks you through the app before leaving.
The team is named individually in the majority of reviews (Connor, Cam, Kane, Blake among them), which is a reliable signal that the same people are consistently showing up rather than subcontracted crews changing job to job. System sizes mentioned across reviews range from 10.5kW to 12.9kW solar with batteries from 16.6kWh to 33.2kWh, suggesting the team is comfortable with larger residential installs rather than only entry-level systems. If you're getting quotes, it's worth asking Connor to walk you through the energy modelling behind his recommendation — reviewers say he can explain the reasoning clearly, which makes it easier to compare his proposal against competitors.

About Elite Energy Co.
Connor leads Elite Energy Co. with a hands-on approach that spans full solar and battery system design, installation, and commissioning — not just panel placement. Reviewers repeatedly note that Connor doesn't default to a standard package: he assesses individual energy usage patterns and designs systems around how each household actually consumes power, with several customers calling out upgrades like single-phase to three-phase conversions and additional circuits completed on the same day as a solar job. The broader team — with Cam, Kane, Blake, and others mentioned across reviews — are specifically praised for arriving on time, working without interrupting the household, then handing over with a full walkthrough of the monitoring app before leaving. Elite Energy Co. also handles general electrical work (data cabling, pendant lighting, sauna circuits, EV-adjacent wiring) alongside solar, which makes them useful for homeowners who want one electrician to handle a broader renovation scope rather than coordinating multiple trades. The business is around a year old but the team clearly carries experience from prior industry work, with at least one returning customer noting Connor previously operated under a different business before striking out independently. Homeowners dealing with poorly installed legacy systems will find this team particularly useful — several reviews mention Elite diagnosing and correcting incorrect prior installations before commissioning their own work.
Best for: homeowners wanting a large residential solar and battery system properly sized to their usage, households needing general electrical work bundled into a single solar install visit, and anyone with an inherited or poorly installed legacy solar system that needs diagnosis before expansion.

What size solar and battery systems does Elite Energy Co. typically install?+
Reviews mention completed installations ranging from 10.5kW to 12.9kW solar systems paired with batteries from 16.6kWh to 33.2kWh, so the team is clearly experienced with mid-to-large residential setups rather than only small starter systems. Equipment brands mentioned across reviews include JA Solar panels and Goodwe ESA inverters and batteries. Connor is noted for recommending system sizes based on actual household energy usage modelling rather than defaulting to a standard size. If you have an unusually high energy demand or an existing system that needs expanding, that context is worth raising with him early in the quote process.
Does Elite Energy Co. handle electrical work beyond solar installation?+
Yes — multiple reviews mention the team completing general electrical work either separately from or on the same day as a solar job. Specific tasks mentioned include data cabling, pendant light installation, a 32-amp circuit for a sauna, and a full single-phase to three-phase power upgrade. At least one reviewer has used the team across several distinct electrical jobs over time and notes consistent quality across all of them. If you have other electrical work to knock over alongside a solar install, it's worth listing those items when you first contact Connor for a quote.
What do customers say about Elite Energy Co.'s pricing?+
Multiple reviewers describe the pricing as competitive or very competitive relative to other quotes they received, and one customer noted Connor adjusted the plan mid-project to save them money. No reviews mention unexpected costs or price changes after the quote was accepted. The business is GST-registered, which means quotes should include a clear tax breakdown. Getting a written quote that itemises equipment, labour, and grid connection costs is always worth requesting before committing.
Will the team explain how to use the system and monitoring app after installation?+
This is one of the most consistently mentioned details across the 39 reviews — nearly every customer who references the handover process describes a thorough walkthrough of the monitoring app, how the battery charges and discharges, and what the shutdown procedures are. Connor also appears to follow up by phone a few days after installation to check the system is running correctly, which several reviewers specifically highlighted as a standout. If you're new to solar monitoring apps, you can expect to leave the installation day knowing how to read your generation and storage data.
Can Elite Energy Co. assess or fix a poorly installed existing solar system?+
At least two reviews mention the team identifying and correcting incorrect prior installations before commissioning their own work, which suggests they're willing to diagnose legacy systems rather than just installing new ones. If you have an existing system you're unsure about, it's worth asking Connor to inspect it before quoting a battery addition or panel expansion — several customers found the inspection itself valuable in understanding what they actually had. Reviews don't specify whether there's a fee for a standalone inspection, so confirm that detail when you make contact.
