Solar for factories, warehouses, farms and commercial property
Solar pays best where a site uses most of its power in daylight, when the panels produce. Factories, warehouses, cold stores and trading centres often fit that pattern. Where power is needed after dark or the grid is unreliable, batteries, solar generators or the grid carry the load.
Every site uses water and power differently. We design around how yours runs.
Factories
Factories use the most power in the day, when solar makes the most. Batteries keep the line running when the grid goes off, so you don't lose time restarting. A borehole gives you your own water.
Warehouses
Big, open buildings with room for lots of panels. Solar helps keep cold rooms, lights and loading docks running.
Farms
Boreholes, solar pumps and irrigation, plus solar on open ground for packhouses and cold rooms. That includes far-off farms with no good grid or water supply.
Commercial property
Malls, retail centres and office parks. Lower common-area costs, backup water, and tenants that keep trading during outages. See the Honey Crest Mall project.
Rural & off-grid sites
Far from the grid or the water pipe? We bring solar, batteries, solar generators and boreholes to you by road, and build them to last.
Questions by sector
Can a factory run on solar power?
Solar can cover a large share of the power a factory uses in the day, because the busiest hours are when solar makes the most. At night or in bad weather the site still needs the grid, batteries or a generator. Batteries also keep the line running when the grid goes off, so you don't lose time restarting.
Is a warehouse suitable for solar?
Warehouses are usually big, open buildings with room for lots of panels. We check the building first, and size the system to help keep cold rooms, lights and loading docks running.
Can solar run irrigation and cold storage on a farm?
Yes. Solar pumps can run boreholes and irrigation, and solar on open ground can power packhouses and cold rooms. That works on far-off farms with no good grid or water supply too.
How does solar help a shopping centre or office park?
Retail centres and office parks use most of their power during trading hours, when solar produces. Solar lowers common-area costs, and batteries keep tenants trading during outages. See the Honey Crest Mall project.
