Australian Solar Quotes is a one stop solar information source, carefully designed to enable our viewers to learn the basics about solar panel technology and solar energy. We research and publish up to date industry news and events as well as providing a national solar directory, detailed with reviews, products and services, locations and more for solar installers and retailers throughout Australia.
We have teamed up with solar panel installers throughout Australia so that we can provide our viewers with independent, competitive and comprehensive quotes on solar panels and other energy saving technologies.
Our team of energy saving enthusiasts work throughout Australia and our head office is based in Brisbane, Queensland. Our network stretches throughout Australia so no matter where your home is we guarantee that we can organise free solar power quotes for you.
The rest of the team is made up from our viewers. That’s right. We encourage all of our viewers to share their experience and feedback by completing a short installer review form so that the rest of Australia can make an informed decision when they choose to go solar.

Darryn Van Hout
Founder and Editor of Australian Solar Quotes
My name is Darryn Van Hout, and believe it or not, I don’t work alone. With close to ten years experience in the Australian energy space, I have networked with industry professionals both in Australia and from around the world to satisfy my ever increasing passion for energy and technology. Whilst on my journey, I have uncovered a strong, close team of professionals that share an interest and work with me on Australia’s leading solar power consumer care website Australian Solar Quotes.
In all honesty, our team does not only consist of the gurus on this page. I also consider various international and national solar energy companies and associates as valued team members as they have made great contributions to this website.
The external contributors include the passionate individuals, companies or organisations who design and manufacture solar panel and inverter technologies. In addition to this, there are the media organisations that oversee and report on the solar energy industry and the larger renewable energy industry as a whole.
I also consider our viewers and users to be a vital part of our team. Just because you use our service, doesn’t mean that you are not a contributor to our service, after all, you have the ability to become an active participant by following, contributing and partnering with Australian Solar Quotes.
As consumers, you have the opportunity to report on your experience if you have chosen to install solar panels on your home or business.
As readers and energy enthusiasts, you can follow our media, whether that be through our online newsletter, social media platforms or directly through our website or smartphone and tablet app.
In any case, please check out the team I have personally assembled for Australian Solar Quotes. They are the core to the business and one of the main reasons that we get so much respect from our viewers and within the industry.
