Who Is True North Solar?
True North Solar is part of a very successful electrical contracting company KDP Electrical that has been operating in Townsville since 2005. Our clients include, Telstra, Transfield, Monodelphous, John Holland Group, NBN Co, QBuild, Silcar and Downer EDI just to name a few.
These ASX listed clients demand the best and only deal with companies that can deliver. They certainly do not deal with back yard operators and fly by nighters, and neither should you.
If you are thinking of investing in solar then you need to do your research, do not hand over your hard earned money to some guy that has 'cold called' you or is just passing through town from some company you have never heard.
These company's tend to offer silly discounts like ' I will take of $2000 if we can install our sign in your yard' or 'We want to use your place as a display so we can offer you a $2000 discount'. These systems are generally way overpriced and the sales person is trying to trick you into signing up.
Solar is a long term investment so you need to base your decision on facts. You need to know that they will back up what they say. Have a talk to someone that has dealt with them, and find out what their experience was like. At least know where their business premises is so if you do have any concerns or need more information you can do it face to face. The internet and websites are a great research tool, but they can certainly make bad companies look good.
Having installed over 600kw of solar power, more than 3000 solar panels on over 300 properties in North Queensland, True North Solar has the experience and capabilities to get the job done. 
True North Solar Pty Ltd is owned and operated by Townsville local Kash Partridge.
Having run a successfully Electrical Contracting Company he wanted to expand his knowledge of solar to explore its benefits and determine its practicality and feasibility. The culmination of this, as well as a desire to become more energy efficient, help the environment, reduce carbon emissions , and to significantly reduce energy costs, led him to the realisation of his goal. ‘To make Solar available to everyone’.
One of the first steps in achieving this goal was to become certified by the Clean Energy Council of Australia in the ‘Design and Installation of Solar Grid Connect Systems’. Both Kash Partidge, and his trusted employee Christian Campbell have completed.
Since then Kash, Chris and the rest of the team have been installing Solar Grid Connect Systems from Cairns to Rockhampton and everywhere in between. During this time True North Solar has joined forces with a national solar company with unprecedented buying power to deliver some great deals for the people of North Queensland.
One of the initial goals of Kash was to install their own Solar system on the roof of their warehouse as a centre piece. This system will be one of the largest of its type in Queensland, Currently under construction this Solar System will be able to be monitored over the internet. Its energy producing power will be able to be viewed by the public, schools and universities all over the world. Once completed True North Solar will be producing more than 30 times more power than they consume, or another way, will power 30 businesses of similar size, with clean, green power.
Kash and the team are looking forward to the next 10 years as Solar continues to gain acceptance in North Queensland ... and most of all they hope to see you.
