🎙️ S2E21 – George Auchterlonie: REST Energy
Recorded at the SolarQuotes Awards, on the eve of All Energy officially kicking off, this episode dives into the story of George Auchterlonie — firefighter, solar installer, founder of Rest Energy in Hobart & of course The Tassie Solar Man.
Pat and Lauren sit down with George to talk about life before solar, going from the tools to running a business, his approach to off-grid installs, and why he still jumps on the tools for the tricky jobs. There’s also plenty of chat about what’s happening at All Energy, battery product teething issues, subby models, CEC frustrations, and the realities of running a small solar biz in Tassie.
It’s a laid-back, open chat with one of the most genuine operators in the game.
