Solar Scout
Analyzes your NZ roof from aerial data and compares quotes from vetted installers
Solar Scout builds a personalized solar report from your power bill and NZ government LIDAR data — panel count, roof layout, and savings — in about 3 minutes, then lines up quotes from up to 3 installers who are EWRB registered, SEANZ members, or Master Electricians certified. A companion guide ranks every NZ retailer by actual solar buy-back rate, pointing to a 16¢ gap between the best and worst payers. It also compares green loan offers from five NZ banks against paying cash upfront.
What holds up
- +Uses NZ government LIDAR data to model your actual roof, not a generic estimate
- +Every installer is EWRB registered, SEANZ or Master Electricians certified before they get your contact info
- +Free guide ranks every NZ retailer by the 16¢ gap in what they actually pay solar owners
- +Compares green loan offers from five NZ banks against paying cash upfront
Mind the limits
- −NZ only — the LIDAR data, retailer comparisons, and installer network don't cover other countries
- −Caps comparisons at 3 installer quotes — not an open marketplace
