Harrisons Solar helping Kiwis Kill Their Bills

Harrisons Solar is proud to be a Gold Sponsor of Re-wiring Aotearoa's Kill Bills tour.   Think of it as a community energy roadshow where local experts, homeowners, and businesses learn the practical steps for cutting energy costs and reducing carbon footprints. 

With the cost of living squeezing households from every direction right now, there's never been a better time to take control of your energy future.

This isn't just a sponsorship to us. We’re walking the talk. Harrisons Solar business owners will be at these events ready to chat, answer questions, and show you how solar panels and solar battery storage can transform the way your home uses energy.

Energy costs are hitting Kiwi households hard. That's why we're throwing our full support behind Re-wiring Aotearoa and their powerful mission. 

Why we’re seeing an upturn in solar enquiries

Matt Ward, CEO of Harrisons Solar looked deeper into why there has been an increase in solar enquiries and bookings lately.  Apart from pure economics (an ROI circa 15%), another big reason is that human, emotional reason - the desire to retain our way of living while so much is currently out of control. 

“We are now seeing this show up in higher numbers of solar systems with batteries being taken up. Not because people want to ‘go off grid’, solar and batteries still work best alongside the grid, but because they want to feel back in control," says Ward.

The solar shift is here 

With electricity prices rising and fossil fuel costs showing no signs of easing, switching to solar isn't just an environmental decision - it's a financial one. 

Kiwi homeowners and businesses alike are seeing real, significant reductions in their power bills.  Those who've added solar battery storage are taking that independence even further.

There's also the bigger picture. Every home that makes the switch means less demand on fossil fuels and a cleaner future for Aotearoa. It adds up and events like the Kill Bills tour are proof that Kiwis are ready to make that shift. 

The best part? You don't have to figure it all out alone. Our local Harrisons Solar team will be at these events to have honest, no-pressure conversations about your home, your location and your budget.
