About
‘We are here for the long haul’ –
First Choice Solar founder welcomes new shareholders
In little more than a decade, Peter Berkers has grown First Choice Solar into one of the largest and most respected solar companies in South-East Queensland and Northern NSW.
Now he is focused on his next goal – overseeing a succession plan that will see the business thrive well into the future.
Founded in 2010, the business started life contracting for other solar companies. However, it was not long before Peter set his sights on becoming a solar retailer and was dealing directly with the customer.
“It’s no secret a lot of solar installers come and go and that’s why we’re so proud of our longevity. Solar is a highly competitive industry, but we are here for the long haul,” said Peter, who has invited two of his loyal team members to join him as shareholders in the business – son Josh Berkers and fellow long-term employee Matt McKinley.
“Matt and Josh have played an integral role in our tremendous growth during the past five years, and I am thrilled to welcome them as joint shareholders.”
Matt has worked with the business for a decade, having started as an installer before climbing the ladder to now being the director of a solar company that employs a dozen staff and has completed more than 10,000 installations.
“Josh oversees our installations, which are completed by full-time employees who are focused on quality rather than quantity,” Peter said.
“He has been with First Choice Solar since high school and throughout his electrical apprenticeship. He has a wealth of experience and knowledge and forms a key part of the leadership team with Matt and myself.”
As a proud father, Peter is understandably excited that Josh has joined him as a shareholder in the company he founded. Peter’s two other sons have also worked for First Choice Solar, with one having been onboard since day one and a potential future shareholder.
Starting out as Qelec Pty Ltd trading as First Choice Solar, the company has since changed its name to First Choice Solar Qld Pty Ltd (ACN: 144 966 110) after the restructure.
“What differentiates us from our competitors is that we don’t employ salespeople,” Peter said.
“We realised that customers want to speak with people who truly know what they are talking about and in our case that is Matt, Josh or myself.
“We are all qualified electricians, Clean Energy Council-accredited solar installers and have spent many years on the tools and our customers appreciate that we have the time to educate and support them.
“I believe there are three important aspects to selecting a solar system that will still be working and saving money for 10 years and beyond - the inverter, panels and installation.
“However, it is not just the quality of these three, but the workmanship and support given by the company providing it. We operate out of a factory and showroom in Burleigh Heads in which our customers can come and discuss our products and get advice and support.”
Peter added: “We only provide products from companies with proven performance that have offices and support staff based in Australia. I like to call these blue-chip companies where they have been around longer than the warranties they offer.”
With the succession plan now in play, the co-owner and mentor has no intention of stepping away any time soon.
“I still love going to work,” Peter said.
“I remain incredibly passionate about the industry, but it is reassuring to know we have implemented a succession plan that will ensure First Choice Solar continues to deliver quality, service and support to our customers well into the future.
“The solar industry is hugely rewarding because of its environmental benefits and we get to help people save money, which is the key driver for most of our customers.
“When you rewire a house, a customer can’t see your work. When a car breaks down, people can begrudge having to pay for it to be fixed. When we leave a job though, our customers look at the new solar panels on their roof and are happy because it is going to save them money for many years to come.
“My job never feels like a chore. It is an industry I love and when it comes time to retire, I think the boys might need to lock me out to keep me away.”

Under promised but over delivered…..so good!!
Close neighbours in our gated community recommended First Choice Solar to us recently and, from the very start, we knew we were in good hands. Matt came to advise us, and answered our endless questions with great patience and without the ‘hard sell’. His itemised quote was received within an hour of him leaving us!!Installation day arrived a few weeks later - & the sun actually shone after days of rain!! Warren, Scott & Ash, the installers, arrived spot on time and proved to be a great team. They were polite, friendly, & were happy to answer yet more of our questions - they were a joy to deal with. They set to work immediate and, with just one very short break, they had the system up and running in no time at all. Warren, the electrician, helped us with the download of the monitoring app and explained how to use the various aspects of the system before leaving! All in all the installation was completed by 12.45 p.m…..a job that we had anticipated would take all day!! Such was the efficiency of their efforts. Thank you, boys. Another job well done & two very happy customers.
Kristina in Customer Service was amazing throughout the whole process and kept us informed every step of the way with no prompting or chasing on our part. First Choice Solar organised the grid connection on our behalf - we were told at the start that we wouldn’t have to do anything - and we didn’t!! Everything seemed to work like clockwork and we feel extremely happy & fortunate to have found a company that actually does what it promises to do and without any hassles.
Well done to Peter, Matt & all the team! We will have no hesitancy in recommending First Choice Solar to anyone requiring the very best of service, excellent tradesmanship & a genuine philosophy of pride in doing things honestly and efficiently.

First Choice Solar
From start to what I hope is finish (ie nothing goes wrong) I cannot fault FCS. The sales person was punctual and personable and recognised my needs. The quote was very competitive. Another company recommended by Solar Quotes sadly was lacking in all the above and i am happy to give phone feedback on this to SQ.The admin team both before and after installation were courteous and responsive. I did not have to wait for any paperwork at all. This is in sharp contrast to other companies I asked for quotes.
The installation exceeded expectations. The chaps turned up on time, were polite and very respectful, and worked very hard to finish the job. Any queries that I am aware of were addressed with me prior to doing anything, eg did I want the foxtel box, tv aerial etc.
The customer service was excellent altogether. I only had to sign an electronic document for them to obtain some rebates as explained to me by them - everything else was handled by them and all I had to do was learn about how the app works and enjoy my new solar battery, inverter and panel installation.
Absolutely would recommend this company - not only for all of the above reasons but also because I am based in a semi rural area and it is hard to get reliable people to come out this far. And I can’t speak for how FCS would handle any future problems, but I was left with the phone number of the team leader and would expect the same level of service to be offered in case of any difficulties. It is unusual to find a company so trustworthy. THANK YOU!

Fantastic Service, Quality of system.
Right from the beginning Bobby went through everything, made recommendations, and listened to our needs. Understood what our goal was with having the system installed, he understood where we wanted the system installed and said he would accommodate our needs and could make it happen without compromising on the quality. We had additional solar panels installed and the battery.We liked that this was a family run business and has been around for many years, that was also reassuring that they are not one of these companies who disappear after a few years.
The installation was quick, the team was friendly, punctual and cleaned up afterwards.
Customer Service was great, answered all my questions, organised everything from start to finish.
Fantastic Service, I would highly recommend First Choice Solar to all our family and friends and anyone looking at having a battery or solar panels installed. 100% satisficed Customer.

Competitive products and service
process was easy, we had delt with this company before , locally owned, product was as expected and they delt with all the red tape11 March 2024
Fantastic experience from start to finish.
I can't recommend this company more highly. It's so rare to have such professional, helpful and friendly experience.It started with the quotation. Once we got in contact with them they sent someone out the next day. The person doing the quote was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to present a range of options as well as understand our electricity use, and then suggested a system based on that, without trying to oversell us on a more expensive system that we didn't need.
They then assisted us greatly in the complicated process of applying for the Queensland battery grant, and were able to arrange installation just a few days after our application was approved.
Finally the team they sent to install remove the old inverter, install the new one and the battery was equally fantastic. They made great efforts to keep everything safe as well as neat and tidy. The final result looks great.
I only wish more companies were as good as these guys.

Easy to deal with
I felt most comfortable dealing with a team who are electricians and know their stuff. The proposal was the best in terms of location of the Inverter and battery. i liked that i did not have to worry about having replacement roof tiles available, they took care of that. They said that we should not see any wiring on the outside of the house is should all be internal.The Install went very well they were on time and on site all day until complete. any questions were clarified by the installers as they went. So far i have not noticed any external wiring.
Afterwards same day we are producing alot of power during the daylight hours. i am glad we went with a battery as it is saving us drawing from the grid in the evening for as long as possible. We are currently waiting for our energy retailer to change over our meter. yet to negotiate a new power buy and sell price.

Solar done smoothly
Michael from First Choice Solar came out to my home to quote, not just relying on satellite photos to establish what system would fit. My aim was to replace an old 3.3kW system for which the inverter and panel makers had long gone out of business. The advice on a proposed new system was comprehensive and informative, and the system was installed by a friendly team only a couple of weeks after I accepted the quote. They helped me get the app installed on my phone and computer, so at long last I can monitor what my system is doing. A minor hitch with a connection to the inverter was remedied later the same day by another member of the FCS team. I was given a manual for the inverter on the day, and have just been sent a wide-ranging manual for my new system. Altogether an excellent experience. Highly recommended.28 February 2024
Great Work
It took a while to organise a site visit and a proper quote. Had a great chat with their sales guy who answered every question I had. Appreciated that the quote was itemised.The install was scheduled for two weeks after accepting the quote and they got it installed and commissioned very quickly. Good communication and as far as I can tell it is very tidy with good workmanship.
It all went very smoothly. Great work!

Service and Efficiency
Its nice to deal with a company that does what it says. Quotes, meetings, install - all as promised. So often things don't happen - even when promised but FCS were great. From the office staff to management to the actual installers - all excellent.13 February 2024
Totally professional and efficient.
The quoting process was very efficient and informative.Installation seemed to go without a hitch in a very timely manner. The whole team were very helpful and personable.
Customer service excellent. Everything went very seemlessly including organising the grid connection

Great service from start to finish.
Sales person was polite and friendly.Installation process was smooth and installers very polite and friendly.
Each process was explained to me and all the documentation was finalised by First Choice Solar.
I recommended First Choice to my neighbours who have since had solar installed by them.

Very good process with an outcome better than being 'sold' to us.
Very satisfied with installer, very good salesperson who willing to take in all of my questions and suggestions.The installation team was friendly and working efficiently. They let me know that a couple of tiles had been broken and asked if I had spares, which I luckily had. This is a strong good point as I can imagine someone could have found out this had happened and was discovering this after the first big rain.
The electrician explained the system to me and how it was installed and helped me to install the app and get connected.

Faultless install
First Choice Solar exceeded my expectations throughout the installation process. Their team was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly efficient. From the initial consultation to the final setup, every step was handled with utmost professionalism. Their installers and engineers made sure to include everything I was looking for regarding full battery backup while keeping their quote competitive. The installers were punctual, courteous, and made sure to address any questions I had. Kudos to First Choice Solar for making the transition to solar power a pleasurable and hassle-free journey. I'm delighted with the seamless experience and would highly recommend First Choice Solar for their exceptional service.Panel rating: 5/5

Happy customer
These guys installed a 15kW goodwe three phase hybrid inverter but no battery (yet). And a Tesla wall charger. Also removed an existing 5kW single phase system. So far so good. Matt who came out and quoted was good and wasn’t afraid to have an opinion. I liked that the quote was itemised - the other companies didn’t do that. Left things tidy.18 December 2023
First Choice Solar did a bang up job 5 stars
The guys at First Choice Solar were great, cheapest quote, also they were happy to accommodate some changes. They arrived on time and had the solar installed in a few hours, they explained how it all works and how the app works. Would recommend them to everyone.04 December 2023

Jake and the boys did a fantastic job, because I wasn’t here at the start of the job the communication between myself and Jake was very professional, I have no hesitation in recommending first choice solar to anyone thinking of installing solar26 November 2023
Excellent Service & Product Quality
Peter was fantastic in providing information, advising and guiding us through our system design and customisation during the quotation phase. Kristina and the rest of the administrative team provided thorough and timely communication throughout the process. On installation day, Jake, Scottie and Kye did an excellent job, with meticulous attention to detail, and were very professional, transparent, helpful and efficient. All in all, this was an excellent installation!

Good customer service
FIRST CHOICE SOLARNot possible to tell value for money or quality of the system until its proved itself over several yrs
Price $5200
Recommended retaining current 3.8KW system
Recommended not getting a battery just yet - prices may come down in the new year plus after a full billing quarter we would be in a better position to confirm how much power we generated, put into the grid and thus would have a better idea of battery size required. The inverter they recommended is a hybrid so a battery can be added
Great service and customer communication. Installed within a mth after initial contact
Installed within 6 hrs. Pilotte staff who cleaned up the area prior to leaving
Completed all liaison with Energex to remove off peak power & upgrade meter box
Once a full billing cycle has been completed the owner will recommend which energy company will provide best value connection fees - feed in rates & overall costs
Quotes not Accepted
INGOT Energy - did not come to house. Most expensive quote. Totally ignored our current 3.8LW syst that still works well. Did not follow up with us
HALCOL ENERGY - visited house & was good. Included retaining current 3.8KW system. Price $6650

Solar installed
Came and gave detailed quote and followed up online. Would have been installed sooner but first date I was out all day. Turned upon time and were busy straight away, very quick. Still have to put cover on inverter and screen door to garage forgot to close, could have tidied up a bit better (but that's all tradies it seems). Organised connection with Energex but that is still to happen as Christmas period10 months later we asked Margaret : "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
Yes, it's fab and I am in credit $108.34 using in last 90 days 60c daily cost compared to $2.15 average daily cost for same period last year when I did not have solar panels. Note I don't use aircon even though it is installed, I find fans enough. Also when at home usually have front door open till dark and other doors, windows in spring/ summBut in winter I like to be warm, maybe a heater while sitting reading, TV etc

Seems great, just waiting for follow up
Great consultant who worked out a system to suit our situation. Quick install by nice folks. Unfortunately the system has some issues with function, we are waiting for someone to attend and resolve that. Otherwise would have higher customer service rating.12 October 2023
Precise, Professional, On time, Supper efficient system
I am very satisfied with First Choice Solar installation and customer service. The materials used look and feel high quality, not only the panels and inverter, but the cabling and ducts all well placed and sealed. They discussed the plan and preferences for position of the inverter prior. The technicians were on time and available post-installation to clarify questions and help with anything. A few months after installation I had to contact them with a fault in the hot water relay, and they resolved the issue within the same day by coming to my property and replacing the device at no cost.In terms of the system itself it is indeed very efficient. Having the Catch Power relay device performing a smart control of the hot water system adds significantly to the energy bill savings. Overall great design.
To sum up, if you are in the Gold Coast area looking for a quality affordable Solar System , look no further.
I just wish I had a little more help with the energy companies, as I had to undergo a metering replacement and this experience can vary depending on which energy retailer you are with.

Smooth Easy Affordable Honest
The quote processes were easy to understand, the installers were friendly and cleaned all areas before leaving. The installer also connected the unit into the grid and gave instructions on any future issues. Great service from start to finish. Thanks, First Choice Solar.10 months later we asked Lena: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
I am happy with the performance of my system. I do wish I installed more panels and a battery to accommodate living with a teenager that uses power late at night due to work commitments. Great instillation!28 September 2023
Efficient and professional company from quote to completion
Purchased a property with existing solar system - ends up inverter not working (For quite a while)..called First Choice to obtain information and assistance on upgrading whole system (wanted someone locally based on GC) The team were punctual, professional and informative, discussed a range of options - we decided on an upgrade to a new inverter and new panels. The install was an excellent experience, the install team were very punctual, polite and professional. We had to delay panel install due to high winds and they were extremely apologetic but understandable given the safety issues. I only had to wait a day until they returned and were completed in approx 1.5 hrs for 16 panels, you can tell they have genuine experience in what they are dealing with- they also assisted with Catch Power app set up and monitoring on my phone, just really good guys to deal with. The support and admin staff at the office were also very helpful and we received a followup email with user guides and confirmation of meter registration the very next day. Lastly given we are in a duplex with a flat roof - the old panels were on a tilt and visible from the road, fairly unsightly - the new ones were laid flat and the building aspect looks so much better! I would highly recommend First Choice for your one stop solar needs on the Gold Coast, family businesses are always the best to deal with.19 September 2023
Working better than my estimate so far
Happy with the system, the panels and inverter and working better than all my estimates that I based my decision on, and better than their estimates too. The only thing I’m not totally happy with is the catch power app is under reading about 5% so far (They are looking into the cause of that). And the Goodwe inverter app only measures production, not power imported and exported, so monitoring is not as good as expected. I would recommend them. I would use them again.Panel rating: 5/5

Great service from quote to installation
First Choice came to me through Solar Quotes and they were the first to contact me and organise a time to come prepare a quote. Bobby showed up for the quote and spent as much time as needed to answer all my questions (and I had many!). At the end, he planned a system that suited both my needs and my budget.Installation day came in just a few weeks and was another great experience, with an early TXT message confirming the team’s arrival time. Josh and the team showed up on time and did a great job in positioning the inverter, running wires to and from the roof and installing the panels on my three storey home. The whole installation looks very clean and they cleaned up all the bits of wire and debris after installation was complete.
At the end, Josh explained how to operate the system, use the monitoring app and the Catch Solar Relay settings to control the water heater, and took his time to explain the next steps with my energy provider and to answer my last few questions.
The system is performing flawless and overall this was the perfect experience I’d expect from a professional solar installation business.

5 Stars All the way!
I recently had Matt and the team at First Choice Solar take care of my solar panel installation. I heard their radio commercial and was hooked by the jingle. From the very beginning, their service was nothing short of impeccable. The quoting process was thorough and transparent, allowing me to make informed decisions about what I needed. The team's professionalism and attention to detail throughout the installation were truly impressive. They ensured that everything was set up perfectly and took the time to address any questions I had. The entire experience was seamless, and I couldn't be happier with the end results, already saving on my power bills. If you're looking for a reliable and customer-focused solar installation company, I highly recommend Matt and the First Choice Solar team."Inverter rating: 5/5

These guys are the best. I got over 10 quotes... it's not all about the price with solar... these guys were the only ones who offered complete end-to-end project management
Do yourself a favour, use First Choice Solar. The best customer service and experience you can imagine. No question is silly to ask and they always have the time of day for you. Incredibly professional.We have an older house in Broadbeach Waters (about 45yrs old) and our electrics box AND meter needed replacing. They took care of the whole project, from start to finish. They include USAGE monitoring as standard as that's something every solar customer should have at install, without question.
Local Gold Coast family-run business with an expanding business for good reason with service such as this.
Best value in town, best products on offer. They only offer you products they'd put on their own houses.
10 months later we asked Paul: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
Absolutely. Love everything aspect of my setup.Best advice is Go As Large As You Can Upfront with panels.

Consumate Professionals
First Choice Solar were absolute professionals in every aspect of our dealings with them. They were friendly, efficient, communicative, and all the interactions we had with them had the crisp feeling of a well oiled machine. We got an extremely detailed and tailored quote immediately after the site inspection which was well explained by their representative, and the install was rapid and looks very neat. I've already recommended them to a friend in the area who is looking at solar too. Thanks First Choice Solar! Thanks to Solarquotes too, what a fantastic resource to get started on our solar journey.Inverter rating: 5/5

Fantastic service, great down to earth company that understands the needs of a consumer
Sales process was simple, to the point and informative. Salesman came to house and talked through options, provided positives and negatives for both a smaller or larger system. Process was simple and order was well structured, simple to approve and understand.Installation was great. Connection to grid was all done and we were up and running on the day.

First Choice. Should have been my first choice.
After many quotes and much research, I should have just looked at the name and gone with them. They were great on price. Excellent on presales questions and making sure all my questions were answered. Best part was they didn't hide anything in the quote. It listed all items.Installation day came very quickly. The guys showed up on time and bounced up on the roof moving the old system up out of the way for the new one. They were done in short work and ran me though the app installs. Gave me a quick rundown of the system and gone. They even used a dustpan and brush. Not your usual electricians :)
After sales service was great. Plenty of emails to get paperwork signed and then came my questions. Matt was happy to come back out an explain how to get the best out of the system.
Would recommend these guys any day of the week.

First Choice Solar was professional from the very first contact.
The person doing the quote was a previous installer and certainly focused more on information than selling. I really appreciated the great communication and friendly contact at the office. The installers were on time and did great job. Only one small hiccup but that rectified from their end very quickly. Now Im saving heaps and enjoying my credits into the system rather than paying them!10 months later we asked Tony: "Are you happy with the performance of your system so far?"
The system has been great. Working as expected and saving me heaps.
Fantastic Service
We were hesitant to install solar panels based on some negative feedback about the process we had received from some friends.However the team at First Choice Solar have been fantastic. They have been knowledgeable, reliable and professional every step of the way.
