🎙️ S3, Ep3 — GoodWe Growth, Battery Booms & Backyard Pressers
This week we’re joined by Shane Jurgenstein, Sales Manager at GoodWe, for a wide-ranging chat about team culture, battery growth, tech support — and why there was a press conference in his backyard.
We cover:
– ⚡ The all-in-one ESA battery and GoodWe’s growing presence in storage
– 📈 What it’s like managing a boom in demand and new installers jumping on board
– 🧰 Tech support, firmware hiccups, and the push to make installs smoother
– 👷♀️ Installer shortages and why labour’s still the biggest challenge
– 💬 Honest thoughts on Bunnings Solar, customer trust and buying panels next to the sausage sizzle
– 💡 Why design and safety still matter — especially when inspecting spaghetti switchboards
– 🧒 GoodWe’s school programs, social impact work, and the EcoSmart Kids project
Plus:
– 🏏 Shane’s backyard moment with the Prime Minister
– 🤝 GoodWe comes on board as a major partner for the 2026 Installer Nights
– 🧪 Lauren’s 3-phase ESA beta install (and unpaid admin duties)
– 🧠 Pat shares some personal news about his ADHD diagnosis — and the response has been huge
– 😂 Loads of laughs in this one — it was a fun one to record
