Professional, Quick and Transparent: Nicholas’s Solar Journey

Motivated by South Africa's ongoing energy crisis, load shedding, and climbing electricity prices, our customer Nicholas Dohmen decided to explore solar energy solutions. Driven to reduce the family's carbon footprint while saving money, Nicholas embarked on a journey towards solar energy. Ultimately, Soly helped the Dohmen family find economic relief and peace of mind, with environmental responsibility.

Chosen Solar Solution:

What Ignited Your Interest in Solar Energy?

It was the crisis in our country, which we’re all aware of. But my family and I are big environmentalists—not like Greenpeace, but it’s quite important to us, especially my daughter. So, between load shedding, the electricity prices, and mainly reducing our carbon footprint, we said, “Let’s put in solar!” We thought it would tick all of those boxes. It’s not just the money, and it’s not just the load shedding; you’d like to think it’s also going to save some trees.

How Would You Describe Your Solar Journey with Soly?

“Their years of experience shows, and it is clear that this company is a leader in their market!”

My solar journey with Soly was professional, quick, and transparent. Everything that was promised was delivered, making the entire journey very positive. I continue to enjoy the benefits of the installation and have Soly to thank for that.

Why Did You Choose Soly?

When researching online I found a lot of different options. I was worried specifically about the ‘fly-by-nights’ and the ‘well I’m an electrician, so I can do solar”. I didn’t want to fork out my hard-earned money and get solar from just anybody. I was doing my research and it kept coming back to Soly.

I ended up choosing Soly over competitors because of their practical consultation as well as their global presence and the certified installers. My consultant, Bas, made a point of saying that this is about a journey with Soly from the beginning through to the installation and beyond, so that gave me peace of mind.

“Soly prioritised my specific needs and solar journey over profit.”

I had a very positive experience, Soly prioritised my specific needs and solar journey over profit. Soly has a very transparent and personalised approach to consultations, offering practical and cost-effective advice backed by thorough documentation.

Solar Installation like a “Formula 1 Pit Crew”

The installation was fantastic, it exceeded my expectations. The Soly team told me exactly what they were doing, they were clean as well. I couldn’t help going to look at the roof afterwards, I couldn’t believe how quickly it was done and so professionally – it blew me away.

“The Soly Team didn’t leave until I understood everything about my installation, how it was optimised, and what’s still to be done.”

It was impressive that the speed and the efficiency were really top-notch. Like I said in my comments, like a Formula One pit crew! We were able to work through the installation with no interruptions to our power.

Nicholas’ Customer Service Experience

“It was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had purchasing something.”

Simple and to the point – I was impressed. The whole sales experience was transparent and committed. The customer service goes beyond my initial conversation during the consultation. All of the commitments were honoured and there was open communication and open availability. Yeah, it was fantastic!
