Why we think this
Under threat because Google lists New Era Electrical (113/22 St Kilda Rd, St Kilda VIC 3182) as permanently closed. Still trading signs: its website https://renew-era.com.au/ still loads; ABN 70899031760 (OTIA AZAH, KUDI ELVIS) is still active; ABN 17095440538 (NEW ERA ENTERPRISES AUSTRALIA PTY LTD) is still active. One more independent source would confirm it as closed.
The date comes from: Last SolarQuotes review (last seen trading).
One sign of trouble (a cancelled name or ABN, a dead website, a run of one star reviews) but not enough to call it closed.
What customers said
5 SolarQuotes reviews
The 5 star reviews say
Reviewers praise the sales process as straightforward and unpushy, with clear pricing given over the phone and time allowed to decide, and say the owner was helpful and answered questions. One review, written a few months after installation, also praises the equipment and efficient service when contacting the company.
The 1 star reviews say
The single 1-star review alleges high-pressure door knocking and letterbox marketing targeting new homeowners, misleading information and failure to help with government rebates, a system that cost far more than neighbours paid for similar work, and roof tiles broken during installation.

Installer gone? We look after orphaned systems.
If the company that put in your solar or battery has closed, we can check the system, chase the manufacturer's warranty and keep it running.
