Every Great Solar Power System Starts With the Right Conversation.
Before we recommend a single product or design a single component, we take the time to understand your situation. Your home is different from your neighbour’s. Your energy needs are different from your colleague’s. A solar system that works perfectly for one property may be completely wrong for another.
This is why every project at Buffalo Energy Solutions begins with a consultation and energy assessment — a structured, professional process that gives our engineering team everything they need to design a system that is built around you specifically, not around a generic template.
The consultation is free of charge and carries no obligation. You are not committing to anything by speaking with us. You are simply getting the information you need to make a well-informed decision.
What the Consultation & Energy Assessment Covers
💬 Understanding Your Energy Needs
We begin by speaking with you directly — listening to what you need, what problems you are currently experiencing with your power supply, and what you want your solar system to achieve. Whether your priority is eliminating generator costs, ensuring 24-hour power supply, reducing your electricity bills, or powering specific appliances, we take note of everything that matters to you before making any recommendations.
⚡ Reviewing Your Current Electricity Usage
We review your current energy consumption in detail. This includes your monthly electricity bills, your generator fuel expenditure, the appliances you use daily, how long each appliance runs, and when your peak energy demand occurs. This data forms the foundation of our system sizing calculations and ensures that the system we design will actually meet your real-world energy needs.
🏠 Assessing Your Property
We visit your property to carry out a physical assessment. We evaluate your roof space, roof type, and structural condition, check the orientation and angle of your roof relative to the sun, identify any shading from trees or nearby structures, and inspect your existing electrical installation. We also identify the most suitable location for your inverter and battery bank. Everything we observe during the site visit is documented and fed into the system design process.
📋 Forming the Basis of Your System Recommendation
All the information gathered during the consultation and assessment is compiled and reviewed by our engineering team. This forms the basis of your system recommendation — ensuring that the system we propose is appropriately sized for your energy needs, correctly configured for your property, and aligned with your budget. Nothing is guessed at or assumed.
What Happens After the Consultation?
Once your consultation and energy assessment are complete, our engineering team uses the findings to prepare your detailed system design and written proposal. This includes a full system specification, panel layout, inverter and battery recommendations, and a complete itemized cost breakdown.

The Consultation Is Completely Free
There is no charge for the consultation and energy assessment. There is no obligation to proceed with us after the consultation. We provide this service because we believe that every customer deserves accurate, professional information before making a decision — and because we are confident that when you see the quality of our work and the honesty of our approach, you will want to work with us.
