Commercial Solar and Battery Systems Built Around Your Business
Reduce electricity costs, manage peak demand and build greater control over how your business uses power.
MyEnergy designs and installs commercial solar and battery systems based on your site’s actual consumption, operating hours, electrical infrastructure and plans for future growth.
From workshops and manufacturing facilities to farms, offices and large commercial sites, we deliver complete systems across South Australia and Victoria.
More Than Solar Panels on a Roof
A successful commercial energy project starts with understanding when, where and how your business uses power.
We review your electricity bills, interval data, peak demand and operating requirements to determine where solar and battery storage can provide genuine value.
Your system can be designed to:
- Reduce daytime electricity purchases
- Lower peak demand and associated network charges
- Store excess solar for use later in the day
- Support sites with limited grid capacity
- Provide backup power for selected critical loads
- Accommodate future machinery, EV charging or business expansion
Solar, Battery or a Complete Energy System
Commercial Solar
Generate power during operating hours and reduce the amount of electricity purchased from the grid.
Commercial solar can be installed across rooftops, car parks or ground-mounted arrays, depending on the available space and site requirements.
Commercial Battery Storage
Store solar or lower-cost grid energy for use when electricity is more expensive or site demand is higher.
Battery storage may be used for peak-demand management, increased solar self-consumption, backup power or additional supply capacity.
Grid-Support Systems
Where a site has a constrained grid connection, battery inverters can provide additional power during short periods of high demand.
This can help businesses operate larger or overlapping loads where a grid upgrade is unavailable, delayed or commercially unviable.
EV Charging and Future Loads
We can incorporate commercial EV charging, new machinery and planned site expansion into the original design, reducing the risk of the system becoming undersized as your business grows.
Designed From Your Actual Energy Data
Commercial systems should not be sized from an electricity bill alone.
Where available, we analyse 12 months of interval data to understand:
- Daytime and overnight consumption
- Seasonal changes in demand
- Maximum demand and short-duration load peaks
- Solar generation and battery utilisation
- Export limitations
- Available switchboard and grid capacity
- Expected system payback
- Future electrical loads
You receive a system recommendation based on the requirements of your site—not a standard package.
Our Commercial Project Process
1. Initial Review
We discuss your objectives and review recent electricity bills, interval data and information about the site.
2. Site Assessment
Our team assesses the available installation areas, switchboards, electrical supply, network requirements and access conditions.
3. System Design and Financial Modelling
We develop a tailored design and provide clear modelling around expected generation, energy savings, battery operation and project costs.
4. Installation and Commissioning
Our in-house installation team completes the work, coordinates the required approvals and commissions the system around your operations.
5. Monitoring and Support
Once operational, the system can be remotely monitored to confirm performance and assist with ongoing support.
Commercial Solar and Battery FAQs
Is battery storage worthwhile for every commercial site?
No. Its value depends on your load profile, electricity tariff, peak demand, solar export and operating requirements. We assess these factors before recommending battery storage.
Can a battery help if our grid supply is limited?
In some applications, yes. A correctly designed grid-support system can provide additional power when site demand temporarily exceeds the available grid supply. Detailed load data is required to confirm whether this is suitable.
Can the system provide blackout backup?
Yes, but backup must be included in the system design. We identify which loads are critical and design the required inverter, battery and changeover arrangement around them.
What information do you need to assess our site?
A recent electricity bill is a useful starting point. For a detailed assessment, we may also request 12 months of interval data, site plans, switchboard photos and information about major equipment or future loads.
Do you manage network applications and approvals?
Yes. Our team can coordinate the relevant network applications, metering requirements and electrical approvals as part of the project.
