Founder & Senior Designer
Bio — coming soonPrestige Power & Energy is senior-designer-led, not sales-led. Every quote that leaves the office has been drafted and signed off by the same engineer who'll stay on your account after install. We are small enough to do that — and we intend to stay small enough.
I started Prestige Power & Energy after watching too many SE QLD homeowners get sold systems they didn't need — drafted by a sales rep with a quota, installed by a crew who'd never met them, monitored by a portal nobody at the company actually checks.
So we do it backwards. The same senior designer reads your bills, draws your roof, signs your quote, and stays on your account afterwards. One name, end-to-end. If a panel under-performs in year three, the person looking at the telemetry is the same person who put it on your roof.
I've been in the electrical trade for 24 years and working in solar since 2009 — long enough to have designed and installed systems for hundreds of homes right across Queensland. I grew up on the Gold Coast and I'm raising my family here, so this isn't a market to me, it's home. I know our rooftops, our climate, and what a power bill does to a household budget.
I started Prestige with one goal: to give homeowners reliable, fact-based information about renewable energy — without the sales jargon — so they can make a decision that's genuinely right for them. A solar and battery system is a big investment, and you deserve straight answers, not a sales pitch. By the time we hand over your system, my aim is simple: that you feel informed, looked after, and completely at peace of mind about the choice you've made. — Carlos Flynn, Founder & Senior Designer
These aren't slogans — they're the operating logic of the company. If we ever break one of these on your project, raise it with the founder directly.
The senior designer who quoted you signs the install drawings, walks the roof if needed, and stays on your account for the life of the system.
The quote you sign is the price you pay. We absorb design errors on our side — you don't get a variation invoice for our oversight.
Battery and panel decisions start from twelve months of your bills. We won't upsell capacity you don't need, and we'll tell you in writing if a smaller system pays back faster.
Per-string telemetry means we usually see a fault before you do. Initial response within 24 hours of notification — full SLA detail in your service agreement.
Started in South East Queensland with a single install van and a belief that solar should be designed properly, not just bolted on.
Accredited for Design & Install across all three classes — GCPV, GCBS and SPS. Installer accreditation transitioned to Solar Accreditation Australia (SAA) in 2023–24; we hold current SAA-accredited Design & Install today, and are a NETCC Approved Seller.
Added battery storage to our offering as the technology matured — SAA-accredited Design & Install for grid-connect battery storage (GCBS) in SEQ.
Launched our end-to-end customer platform — design tool, live quoting, e-signature, and a personal portal for every customer.
100,000 kW of solar and 75,000 kWh of battery storage installed for customers across Brisbane, Gold Coast and the Sunshine Coast. Signups now open Australia-wide; installation expanding state by state.
