The core business of the company was as a sales company of rooftop solar power systems, with installation and perhaps responsibility for issues by contractors. Operated in all major states in Australia (absent from the Northern Territory and Australian Capital Territory) and no office in Tasmania. Founded in 2009, closed late 2018.[4]

ACCC issues

On 4 November 2011, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission reported that True Value Solar Pty Ltd paid two infringement notices totalling $13,200 and provided a court enforceable undertaking to the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission regarding misleading advertising.[6]

Purchase By M+W Group

In March 2013, True Value Solar became fully owned by German-based M+W Group, after the engineering and construction firm bought True Value’s remaining 35 per cent shareholding. M+W was already the majority shareholder in the rooftop solar specialist, having bought 65 per cent of the company in 2011.[7]

In March 2011 German engineering firm M+W Group announced that it had purchased a majority stake in National Solar Group, the parent company of True Value Solar at the time.[8]
