Large commercial rooftop solar system on a school building
For business

Commercial solar that works around your operations

Engineered rooftop solar for businesses, schools, warehouses and community facilities, designed around how your site actually uses electricity.

Our approach

Designed around demand, not guesswork

Commercial solar delivers the best results when it is matched to your load profile, tariffs and infrastructure. We analyse consumption and interval data, assess roof and structural constraints, and coordinate network requirements before finalising a design.

Our education projects include a 550 kW rooftop system, delivered safely while the campus remained open.

  • Consumption and interval-data analysis to size for real demand
  • Network connection and export-limit coordination
  • Site-specific safety planning for occupied workplaces and campuses
  • Battery-ready designs for future storage integration

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

How long does a commercial solar project take?

Timelines depend on system size and network approval. Smaller systems can be installed within weeks of approval, while larger systems are staged to suit site operations.

Do you work on sites that stay open?

Yes. We regularly work on occupied campuses and workplaces, using site-specific safe work method statements, segregated work zones and scheduling around operations.

What if my network limits solar exports?

We design within network export limits and can use export control or battery storage to make the most of your solar generation.

Can you assess an existing commercial system?

Yes. We review existing systems for performance, expansion potential and battery integration.
