A quote review is the easiest way into independent advice.
The review works only with the quotes you already hold and your load data, and it often finds gaps in scope and oversized systems that you would miss by reading the quotes side by side.
Fixed price
Agreed before the review starts
Independent of every bidder
We hold no stake in any quote reviewed
What you get and what we need
We bring every quote onto the same basis: usable kWh, power, efficiency, cycle and warranty terms, gaps in scope, grid connection, fire protection and O&M (operation and maintenance). We check the sizing against your load profile and give you the questions to put to each bidder.
- Normalised comparison: usable kWh, power, efficiency, cycle and warranty terms, scope gaps, grid connection, fire protection, O&M

We hold no stake in any quote reviewed
Send the quotes as they are, together with your load profile and bills, so that we can check the sizing and not only the wording. A specification you have already issued makes the review faster.

Role and fee
This is how we are engaged on this service and how the fee is set.
One role per project
On every project we take one of two roles, never both. As independent advisor we are paid a fee, earn nothing on hardware and take no commission from manufacturers or installers. As turnkey partner we deliver the system through vetted installation partners under one contract. If we wrote the specification or evaluate the bids, we do not bid.
Fee
Load-profile analysis, feasibility studies, quote reviews and acceptance tests are offered at a fixed price agreed on the scope. Owner's engineering is billed by day rate or as a fixed fee. Turnkey delivery is a fixed-price contract.
