Who are the Solar Nerds?

First off, we’d like to think that it’s not only us that are Solar Nerds, but also you. On a more serious note however, Solar Nerds is a trademark owned by Solaris Finance, a finance company that specialises in the solar and battery market.

Why do we do this?

We use our Solar Nerds brand to market our finance business. As a consumer, you will mainly see our articles helping you through your buying journey, however that’s only a part of our content. We provide free training to solar vendors and also publish installation data all for free.

Rather than focus on “getting” sales for our finance business, we focus on “giving” to the broader solar community. We’re happy with whatever we get in return.
