Australia's smartest name in solar since 1953
Nobody knows solar like Solahart, and no other company can match Solahart's exceptionally long history of innovation and leadership in the renewable energy business. Since we launched our first solar water heater in 1953, we've invested millions of dollars into Research and Development (R&D) and manufacturing. We've also installed over one million water heaters in more than 70 countries around the world and over one million solar panels in Australia alone.
Today, we offer a complete ecosystem of renewable energy solutions for your home or business. Our product range extends from highly efficient solar water heaters and solar power systems to battery storage, solar-smart electric water heaters, heat pumps, EV chargers, and Home Energy Management Systems (HEMS).
