14 Oct 2020Peter McLaren and his team have been nothing short of exceptional with communication and service! He even helped me move to a more suitable retailer with a direct contact. I am very happy so far. We will now have to wait and see what having solar really means to our power bill after using it for at least a quarter. Expecting to get connected to the grid in the next 15 days.

12 Aug 2020Exceptional product and service. Once the Quote was finalised a date of installation was provided and all said and was completed on the day with no issues. Paul Blake and the electrical team headed by Steve Cullen are a first class act. They never stopped until the job was completed late in the day. I am happy to attest to this in person.

17 Jun 2020OTI Power was recommended to me by my electrician early this year (2020). The service supplied by OTI from the first phone call has been exceptional. Peter McLaren's initial thorough explanations and advise were great and the products and ongoing assistance has been fantastic. I recommend this team to everyone who wants a smooth transition to solar power.

14 May 2020Quote to installation was less than 7 calendar days. The work done by the team looks remarkable. The service and patience Peter Mc provided to me has been extraordinary.
I can't rate OTI Power highly enough. This is a class outfit!

16 Apr 2020Following a very helpful meeting with Peter McClaren we elected to go with OTI and yesterday (less than 7 days later) the install was completed by Steve and his team. The result is amazing and I'm now watching real-time analytics proving my roof is generating power. I'm exceptionally happy with the OTI team's professionalism and service.

12 Mar 2020We’d like to take the opportunity to express our sincere appreciation to Peter McLaren and his team for the amazing service and assistance provided in installing our solar system. For us installing solar was a major financial commitment, and there is a minefield of information and misinformation out there regarding solar. We wanted a high-quality system at a reasonable price. Peter was able to help us navigate the information, answer our many questions and help us decide on a system that will serve us well for the next 10 to 20 years.
Peter assured us that their installation team were second to none and James and his team well and truly lived up to Peters recommendation. They were quick, efficient and very tidy.
Peter and the OTI team have maintained contact with us since installation and have monitored our power output and system operation closely. We wish to thank Peter and the OTI Power team for their commitment to outstanding customer service and delivery of a cost-efficient solar power supply. We would highly recommend OTI Power!

12 Mar 2020OTI installed my solar system nearly two years ago and it's one of those jobs I wished I'd done sooner. Peter McLaren from OTI gave great advice on the size of my unit so that it covered my needs now as well as will benefit me once I add a battery to the system. Also their advice on using the Solar Edge system so I can track production and usage has allowed me to adjust when various appliances turn on and off to minimise my electricity bill. Installation was fast and efficient and after sales service was great. I had an issue with a couple of panels and OTI fixed it up no problem. Very happy.

12 Mar 2020I would like to personally recommend Paul Blake, Peter McLaren and the entire OTI Power team.
Having been involved in the solar industry for over a decade, I have had the pleasure of dealing with OTI and experiencing their growth since inception. OTI are a customer focussed, service-related company that provide professional advice and proven savings for their customers, whilst understanding the importance of only dealing with reputable quality brands. OTI Power have the knowledge and numerous successful reference cases that support my personal recommendation. Become another good solar story and contact OTI Power.

12 Mar 2020Probably the best experience that you could hope for, especially in a market full of con-artists . Peter was friendly, honest and responsive to the point that you could tell that customer service perfection is what drives him. OTI used some of the most efficient, quality and friendly sparkies that I have ever met, and the system is everything as good as what i was sold.
Love the smartphone app! for those of you who want to track the juice coming in and the juice going out, the sungrow experience is fantastic!
dont hesitate, we are super happy with OTI.

6 Feb 2020A very easy experience for something we thought would be daunting. Peter McLaren at OTI Power made the whole process of choosing which solar system would suit us best very simple. The installation from Tom and his team happened professionally and without any fuss. Highly recommend.

5 Feb 2020Installation professional for a 15kw system.
Installers quick and clean and cannot believe the savings, some billing periods receiving a credit. During the hotter months we are running the aircon all day for little or no extra cost. We make sure we run the dishwasher, washing machine etc. during the day.
Payback under 3 years.....a “no brainier”

5 Feb 2020I got onto OTI Power, Sanctuary Cove, after doing my internet research on quality, performance and price. Then Peter McLaren came to our house and gave us a comprehensive free assessment and explanation on our options and followed up with two quotes for different systems. OTI Power’s staff were punctual, very professional, installed everything in one day, cleaned up and left us with clear instructions. They continue to support us if we have any queries. Peter is very responsive to calls. We couldn’t be happier. This was over a year ago and the system has been working perfectly. We enjoy watching the solar production trends on the app. It is true that we have slashed our energy bills by 90%. Some months we get money back from the energy provider and don’t have to pay the bill. I highly recommend OTI power. You won’t be disappointed.

5 Feb 2020Couldn't recommend OTI Power highly enough! Peter was extremely helpful and made the process very easy, it was a no brainer to go with OTI. Tom and the team who did the installation were also great, friendly and highly professional. They were there every step of the way. We're already saving and are very happy customers! Thank you to Peter and the entire team at OTI.

17 Jan 2020It’s been 12 months now since I first approached Peter McLaren and Paul Blake from OTI solar and everything Peter promised has been achieved and more. My electricity bills have been more than halved right from the very first bill!
Peter has a very professional and service approach and disposition. He attended and reviewed my past 2 years of bills and advised the best system for me. I was very happy with the price - I paid up front- but he can offer payment options. His after sales service has been nothing but excellent and even after 1 year he is only too happy to advise on the best deals with the electricity companies.
The panels they use are of excellent standard and not the “cheap” ones many companies offer.
I would have no hesitation in highly recommending Peter McLaren and OTI solar for all your solar needs

9 Jan 2020OTI power installation was smooth and professional. The before and after sales led by Peter Mclaren was first class. The significant savings on my investment have been 100% what was promised by Peter at time of sale.
Even more impressive is the after sales support. All questions and improvements were managed with professional service. Peter Mclaren and his team were not just an installer they assited in me sourcing the best deal possible for my system.

21 Dec 2019I like to take the opportunity to express my appreciation to you and your team for the great job done installing the solar system at our house.
My expectations of your installation and the service have been largely exceeded in every respect.
You took the time to answer every question I had in detail and made my decision easy and painless.
Just a note that I have already recommended the company to our friends.
Once again, please pass my thanks to the rest of the team.

21 Dec 2019After renovating my house which included two heated pools (one indoor and one outdoor), three phase power conversion, 4 ducted air systems which run continuously, I decided to wait and see how this renovation would affect my Electrical Bill; to my surprise it went up from $1000 to $3500 per quarter. After a year I started getting a little apprehensive about paying these large Electrical bills each quarter and decided to enquire more about Solar. I already had a little 1.5KW Solar system on the roof (6 panels) which I put on 10 years ago but it wasn’t even making a dent into my current Bill.
I had a couple of Residential Type solar installers approach me, saying you need a 5KW system which they claimed was the largest you can put on your house and the cost would be $12K, but I knew this wouldn’t do much either, I needed something much greater than this. Then I was at the 19th Hole having a beer at my golf club with Peter McLaren, who said he was into Solar, So I showed him my bill and he said mate your need a 18kw system which will produce you daily around 80 to 120kwh, I now have 62 solar panels on my roof and a 15KW 3 phase inverter.
When Peter told me the price for what I was getting compared to the other deals other installers were saying, his offer was only slightly more than the much smaller 5Kw system once the STC rebate was deducted. I agreed to it straight up and seriously it was one of the best decisions I have made this year. I wake up every morning eager to go out and look at the electrical meter to see how much money I have made and how much money I have saved, and during the day the meter doesn’t move at all. I tell you, I think those electrical retail providers are a sham, Solar is the future for sure.
The OTI Service Technicians Sam and Tom were excellent qualified electricians and they were trustworthy in my house, they even did a couple of extra odd jobs for me such as install some power points in my bedroom. They finished the entire install in a day and they didn’t leave until the job was finished, operational and commissioned. Peter was very professional and managed the process end to end, and made several communications with me to ensure I was comfortable during the course of the whole job. Even the Boss, Paul Blake came past twice, pre and post job to ensure everything went smoothly.
OTI is a very professional outfit to do business with.I look forward to taking my Home completely off grid later this year once the three phase storage batteries become available. Thanks again OTI Power.

19 Dec 2019In July 2017 my partner and I decided we wanted to invest in a solar system for our recently purchased house. So I did some personal research and went to various websites that automatically put you in touch with 3 businesses to get quotes. One of the recommended businesses put in touch with me was OTI Power which led to us meeting with Peter McLaren to discuss what we wanted and everything involved in purchasing/installing a solar system.
After getting various quotes from different organisations my partner and I had to wait a few months before we could proceed any further but during that time I staying in touch with Peter, relaying to him what my own personal research suggested I should choose in relation to inverters and panels and Peter would share from his experience what he felt were the best options. We didn’t want a cheap system. We wanted high quality at a reasonable price. By October 2017 we had decided we were ready to book installation with OTI Power.
We choose OTI Power for a couple of reasons. Firstly Peter offered sound advice on the choice of panels and inverters but still respected it was my choice and provided various quotes based on these choices. Secondly, Peter assured me that OTI Power would deliver excellent after sales service. This was the major reason for choosing OTI Power. It’s now February 2018 and we are extremely happy we chose OTI Power. The installation took place in late October. Installation was fast and hassle-free. We chose the inverter and panels Peter recommended and have been extremely happy with the performance. We have had an issue recently with fluctuating voltage levels coming from the Energex grid and as promised Peter got the issue resolved within 24 hours (Note this issue was not any fault of the inverter or panels. It just needed some settings adjusted to compensate for the fluctuating voltage in the grid). Firstly thank you to Peter for the great customer service. Secondly to anyone who reads this I highly recommend OTI Power. Buying a solar system is a long term investment (not just a one off purchase) and Peter offers excellent after sales service.

26 Nov 2019After applying online for Solar panel information and quotes, within a few minutes OTI Power had contacted me and were happy to answer questions that were important to my decision making.
At no time did I feel pressured to purchase and OTI were adamant that I be comfortable with my choice and stay within my budget. This clearly is what you would expect from a
company wanting business but this had not been the response from other groups who contacted me.
OTI Power is a business that is passionate about their monitoring of and ongoing involvement in the systems they put in place. The team were terrific, efficient and pleasant and the panels look great.
I am very pleased with the whole experience and recommend the OTI Power team without reservation.
Installation was organised in a very timely manner and completed with the utmost professionalism. I was very impressed with the care taken by the installers to do the job right, finish cleanly and in a friendly manner.
I would not hesitate to recommend OTI Power to anyone. This is in no small part due to their customer support commencing with the initial consultation to the installation of the system including the after sales support.
It is refreshing to deal with a company as an exception to those taking the consumers’ money and ignoring any responsibility.

26 Nov 2019We decided on installing solar early this year (2016) and called for three quotes. We met with all three operators and received full details and written quotes for the system we were looking for. We selected OTI Power, who were not the cheapest of the three, but we found the team at OTI to be more straight-forward, knowledgeable, helpful and believable than the others.
They explained the difference between available components, and the importance of a professional installation which gave us the confidence to choose his company ahead of the others. Since the installation, OTI Power have been in regular contact to see how everything is operating, and how our charges for electricity are comparing to the time before solar was connected. Since then we have recommended OTI Power to friends and neighbours, and will continue to do so. Needless to say, we are delighted with the advice, the installation and the outcome.

21 Nov 2019I would like to express my gratitude to Peter McLaren at OTI Power for the recent installation of my Solar System. From my first phone call to Peter until after the whole system was up and going, I experienced nothing but understanding, consideration and professional advice from Peter and his expert team. On the day of installation, the team were punctual and explained everything that was to be done.
There was no payments changing hands until I was 100% happy with the product and service. I have been able to contact Peter on several occasions without feeling that I am being a nuisance. The after sales service and advice has been second to none. He has gone above and beyond my expectations of assistance and advice. I cannot wait until I receive my first full quarter power account to see the difference this product has made.
I will be recommending Peter and OTI Power for any solar installation. 100% happy with my choice.

23 Sep 2019Professional, prompt service and quote process, but need to do plenty of research to ensure you get what you want when discussing requirements with representative.
Installation very good quality an no out of pocket costs. We wanted a high end quality system of 10KW with 3 phase power with possible future connection to a battery, and that’s what we received.
Customer service and grid connection follow up very good. They will be doing a full review after first quarterly bill to recommend which plan and electricity vendor to migrate to, if required.

2 Sep 2019OTI Power has been amazing to deal with for our solar installation. OTI Power worked with our builder to get as much as the cabling installed during construction and once we were ready they installed our solar system so efficiently. The install team were very helpful and set the system up for me before they left my home, no hassles at all. OTI Power not only delivered what they promised, they had unbeatable pricing, exceptional customer service and a friendly helpful install team. The follow up after installation to ensure we were with the correct/best energy supplier to best maximise our investment was also another great service. I would highly recommend OTI Power”.

19 Aug 2019Over the past 2 years we have used Paul Blake to provide a solar electric generating system for our Valley offices as well as for my home. Dealing with Paul Blake has made the process incredibly easy. Work was done on time and to budget, which was very competitive. Their installers were both proficient as well as very respectful to both our employees and our neighbours.
As an architect, I cannot fault the standard of trade work. Paul continued with after sale service and has been extremely helpful with authorities and power suppliers. He assisted us to recently change power suppliers to further bene t our power costs. I would recommend Paul and his company to any prospective purchaser of solar power systems and management, both domestic and commercial.

6 Aug 2019We found Paul to be very helpful and knowledgeable in advising us on the selection and installation of our solar panel system. Having access to the roof top views of our house gave us clear guide to the layout and sizing of our system.
The installation process was very smooth and Paul has provided excellent follow-up and ongoing advice. Thanks Paul, solar has fulfilled our expectations and we look forward to a secure energy future.”

6 Dec 2018We recently engaged Oti Power to install our solar system on our house in Robina. If you are reading this, you may well be going through the bamboozling mind field of information and misinformation out there regarding solar, which we did. On doing research it was very hard to decide who to choose and trust. We were going to use another installer initially until we came across Peter and OTI power. Peter and the team go out of their way to provide the best service in the market and we would confidently refer them to others. They were well priced, but better still the service was second to none. The install went very smoothly and professionally and the after service has been great also. We have had issues with our current energy provider in upgrading our meter since the install which had nothing to do with OTI power. However they 'held our hand' through the process to get a satisfactory outcome. I confidently believe they will be there in the future for us if we have questions or queries. We are happy for anyone to contact us if they have concerns in taking the plunge.
