Hi Fairfield! I’m Mark Cavanagh, owner and manager of MC Electrical. I’m an Electrician, an accredited solar designer and installer and a solar power blogger.

I’m passionate about the solar industry. For the past 11 years I’ve been testing solar panels and solar inverters and finding more robust methods of installing solar. Part of this work has opened opportunities for me and some of my staff to travel to Israel, Germany, Austria, China, Korea, Mexico and the USA. Here we visit Solar Factories and meet with solar industry leaders, to check out products we recommend … and products we no longer recommend. I share my findings in “Mark’s Blog” for consumers and for the industry.

Fairfield Solar Panel System Installers

Here’s somthing you didn’t know about Fairfield: As of June 2019, Fairfeld and Annerly have about 4103 homes, but only 1049 of these homes have solar panels. That’s only 26% of homes with solar. Compare that to 35% of homes in Queensland that have solar panels. Fairfield – you’re not pulling your weight!

I used to live in Fairfield. Such a nice leafy suburb, and only a stone’s throw from the city. I had a share house on Ashby street from 2002 to 2005 while I was studying theology. I lived with a Korean, a Japanese, an Italian and Spanish. And yes, we all loved to cook. We feasted almost every night. So many happy memories of parties in our rundown house, and hanging out with the good people from Fairfield Baptist Church.

It was only four years later I started a solar power business out of our spare bedroom in our Banyo cottage. That solar panel  company has turned into Brisbane’s most reputable solar panel installation company. I now employ around 40 people who are dedicated to installing Brisbane’s best solar panel systems.
