What Sets Adam Solar Apart?
When reading through Adam Solar’s reviews, what stands out is their flexibility to tailor solutions to individual property needs, like unique roof layouts or specific requests. Their after-sales support is also heralded, as they helped customers with technical issues, system optimisation, and assistance with grid connections or meter installations.

Adam and his team are a joy to deal with. Very professional, great communication during the installation and amazing post job follow-up.
Interview With This Year’s Winner – Adam Solar
Adam Solar is now a back-to-back winner, having taken 2023’s top spot as well.
We had a chat with managing director and owner Adam Karroum and asked why he thinks they were able to accomplish this:
I come from a strong family background where I learned the importance of trust, honesty, transparency, and loyalty in all relationships, both personal and professional. Everything we do at Adam Solar is based on these four core values.
As a family-owned business, we believe in offering good old-fashioned Aussie customer service.
We also asked him if there are any specific challenges with selling or installing solar in Adelaide:
Adelaide is a close-knit community where word-of-mouth matters. We believe in the power of referrals, with 80% of our business coming from satisfied customers encouraging their friends and families to go solar because it truly works.
