About Brightlec
Brightlec was founded by two lifelong friends who believed solar should be done properly by qualified tradespeople, with honest advice, and long-term accountability.
What began in 2015 as a two-person operation in Brisbane has grown into a large, accredited installation team completing over 40,000 solar and battery installations across the east coast. Despite our growth, we’ve remained one stable company under the same ownership, ABN and ACN — standing behind every installation and every warranty.
Based in Yatala, we support homes across Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast and Northern NSW, delivering high-quality solar and battery solutions designed for long-term performance, not shortcuts.
At Brightlec, it’s simple: real tradespeople, real accountability, and solar done the right way.
