Jacob Surjan
Born in Fremantle, Western Australia. Twenty-four years in professional sport as a player, an administrator and a coach. I moved into renewables recently and I’m genuinely passionate about it — and the relationships I built over a long time in sport transfer straight into this industry.
The people I talk to are worried about electricity prices going up. My job is to help, guide and educate them on how we can get them where they want to be.
I walk you through what the process looks like, then work out what you actually need by asking simple questions and listening. Then I give you the best outcome for what you need.

straight answers
The questions people actually ask me
How do I know I'm not being overquoted?
You get an itemised quote — every panel, the inverter, the battery, the labour, line by line. Compare it to anyone else's. If something doesn't stack up, I'll walk you through it. Most people get two to five quotes before deciding, and I'd rather you do that with your eyes open.
Is my roof even suitable?
That's exactly what the free assessment checks — roof orientation, shading, condition and your switchboard. If it's not right, or needs work first, I'll tell you before you commit to anything.
Is a battery actually worth it?
Sometimes yes, sometimes not yet — it depends on your usage and the current SA rebates. I'll model it on your real numbers rather than give you a sales answer. Honest version: it's not right for everyone.
Will AR Energy still be around to honour the warranty?
We're the #3 solar installer in SA, 4× SunWiz Award winners for 2026, CEC accredited, operating across SA and WA with 60+ years of combined experience on the team. We're not going anywhere — and you'll have a direct line to me.
What happens after the install?
You're not handed off to a call centre. I'm your contact, we set up performance monitoring, and there's a service team behind me if anything ever needs a look. That's the point of the Certainty Pack.
Let's find out what your home can save.
Book your free, no-obligation assessment. I'll do the rest — and you'll keep the Certainty Pack either way.
