Commercial solar for Geelong & Brisbane businesses
Solar for offices, warehouses, retail and industrial sites, sized to your daytime load so more of every kilowatt-hour goes straight into running your business.
Your busiest hours are solar’s best hours
Most businesses use the bulk of their power between morning and late afternoon, which is exactly when panels generate the most. So a larger share of your solar is used on site instead of exported for a small feed-in credit.
We use your interval data (half-hourly usage from your retailer or distributor) to size a system that matches your load, and show you the expected self-consumption before you commit.
- Offset daytime demand from lighting, aircon, refrigeration and equipment
- Reduce exposure to rising energy prices
- Show customers real progress on sustainability
Solar generation vs. business hours
Illustrative weekday profile. We model your own data.
Solar for every kind of business
If you have a roof and a daytime power bill, there’s a good chance solar can cut it.
A commercial project, managed end to end
One team from the first data review to ongoing monitoring.
Load & bill analysis
We model your interval data and tariffs to size the system and estimate savings.
Engineering & approvals
Structural checks where needed, network connection applications and export limits.
Minimal disruption
Installs planned around trading hours, with site safety plans and clear timelines.
Monitoring & maintenance
Performance monitoring and optional cleaning and inspection to keep output high.
Up to 100 kW, or above it?
The size of your system changes how incentives, approvals and timelines work.
Small-scale systems
- Incentive
- Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs), usually taken as an upfront discount on the price.
- Typical sites
- Offices, shops, cafés, clinics and smaller warehouses.
- Approvals
- Network connection application. Export limits may apply.
- Timeline
- Generally quicker to approve and install.
Large-scale systems
- Incentive
- Creates Large-scale Generation Certificates (LGCs) as it generates, which can be sold for ongoing income.
- Typical sites
- Large warehouses, manufacturing and cold storage.
- Approvals
- More detailed network studies and protection, and often structural engineering.
- Timeline
- Longer lead time. We map every stage out up front.
Incentive rules and network requirements change. We confirm what applies to your site in your proposal.

Business solar questions
Talk to us about your site, your data and your goals.
Talk to a Solar ExpertPrice depends on system size, roof type and access, switchboard and network requirements, and the components you choose. After reviewing your interval data and site, we provide an itemised proposal with modelled savings.
It depends mainly on how much of the solar you use during the day, your electricity tariffs and the system size. Businesses with strong weekday daytime demand usually see the best returns. We model payback using your own usage data, not averages.
Yes. We plan installs around your trading hours, keep work areas safe and separated, and schedule any short power interruptions in advance, often outside business hours.
Surplus solar is exported to the grid for a feed-in credit, or stored in a battery if you have one. We factor weekends and holidays into the sizing so the system still makes sense across the whole year.
Often, yes. You will need the building owner’s approval for roof works. We can provide the technical information your landlord needs and talk through options that suit both parties.
Not always. Many businesses use most of their solar during the day, so a battery adds less value. A battery can help if you have evening loads, demand charges or backup needs. We model both options.
