Our approach

Unlocking solar for multi-residential buildings

Apartment buildings have shared roofs, complex metering and many stakeholders. Working with Allume Energy, we install SolShare technology, which distributes rooftop solar between participating apartments behind the meter.

Each building needs an individual assessment of roof space, metering and electrical configuration before outcomes can be confirmed.

  • Building and roof suitability assessment
  • Metering and electrical configuration review
  • Strata, owners and resident coordination
  • Safe access and installation in occupied buildings

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

What is SolShare?

SolShare, developed by Allume Energy, shares the output of one rooftop solar system between multiple apartments in a building, so participating residents can use solar directly.

Does every apartment need to participate?

No. Participation and allocation are set per building. We assess the building and explain how the system can be configured.

Who needs to approve the project?

Typically the owners corporation or strata committee. We can provide information to support the approval process.

Can you work while residents are home?

Yes. Our team has delivered rooftop solar on occupied apartment buildings with planned access, segregated work areas and resident communication.
