In Solco's defence, 1. they are mainly a Western Australian company (allbeit one that is now expanding vigorously into the eastern states and Pacific) 2. WA only brought in its 40+7cent FIT in July 3. Wholesaling a commodity is always going to be a marginal business unless the wholesaler can add value.
SOO is starting to try to add value with product testing (undoubtedly expensive and always necessary as new panels/inverters/suppliers come on stream), project design and management. With luck they will soon start to look like the solar business of CBD.
