Commercial Solar Is The Most Predictable Energy Investment You Can Make.
Unlike most business investments, commercial solar produces measurable, predictable returns from day one. Most commercial systems achieve payback in 3-5 years and continue generating savings for 25+ years beyond that.
For businesses with high daytime electricity consumption, manufacturing, retail, warehousing, offices, commercial solar typically offsets 40-80% of grid consumption. With current commercial electricity prices, that’s tens of thousands of dollars saved annually.

Commercial Solar FAQs.
What size commercial solar system do I need?
It depends entirely on your daytime consumption pattern. We analyse your last 12 months of energy bills to size a system that maximises self-consumption, typically 30kW to 200kW for SMEs.
How long does a commercial solar installation take?
Most commercial installations are completed in 3-10 days depending on system size and roof complexity. Grid connection and final switch-on usually adds 2-4 weeks for distributor approvals.
What's the typical payback on commercial solar?
Most commercial solar systems achieve payback in 3-5 years. Businesses with high daytime consumption often achieve payback in under 3 years.
Are there rebates available for commercial solar?
Yes. The federal Small-scale Technology Certificate (STC) scheme provides upfront discounts on systems up to 100kW. Larger systems qualify for Large-scale Generation Certificates (LGCs).
Can you install battery storage too?
Yes. We design and install commercial battery storage systems where the financial case stacks up, typically alongside solar to maximise self-consumption.
