About Us – Committed to Climate‑Smart Innovation
Founded in 2016 by renewable‑energy entrepreneur Alex Chen and battery‑storage specialist Dr Mei Tan, SolarNest has evolved from a two‑person startup in Dunedin into a team of 50+ accredited electricians, engineers, and sustainability consultants. We hold Clean Energy Council accreditation and partner with Tier‑1 module and inverter manufacturers to guarantee top performance and lasting warranties. Our in‑house research group collaborates with Otago Polytechnic on next‑generation panel coatings and energy‑management algorithms. Every SolarNest project begins with transparent financial analyses, clear ROI projections, and user‑friendly monitoring interfaces—ensuring you’re fully informed and empowered. Beyond installations, we host community workshops and school programs to foster renewable‑energy literacy across Aotearoa.
