Solar Quotes, the pioneering and highly regarded instant quote comparison service for the installation of rooftop PV, has been snapped up by Big Three gentailer Origin Energy, 16 years after its genesis in the walk-in robe of its founder, Finn Peacock.

Well, thats the end of Solar Quotes. What a pity, it used to be a great resource for finding information (and installers who werent cowboys).
