Why install solar for your business? Solar energy systems, both panels and batteries have decreased in cost in recent years which makes payback periods on them much shorter. And there’s lots of reasons why solar energy is a fantastic addition for any business. Solar panels and solar energy systems provide clean, renewable energy that’s 100% free.
By installing solar energy for your business or commercial building you can decrease your energy bills (and even stop paying for energy all together), you can reduce your carbon emissions and in some cases even be paid for the energy you supply back to the main-grid.

Businesses in Victoria may be eligible for the Victorian Solar Business Program.

Businesses must meet eligibility requirements, so if you’re unsure if your Melbourne business is eligible for a solar rebate, our solar experts can help.
We have payment options and solar packages available upon request.
Commercial solar battery storage is an increasingly popular option for businesses in Melbourne looking to reduce their energy costs and reliance on the grid. With a solar battery, your business can store excess solar energy generated during the day and use it during peak periods of when the sun is not shining. This can significantly reduce your energy bills and provider greater energy security during times of power outages or interruptions.
Commercial solar battery storage systems hep to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and demonstrate a business’s commitment to sustainability
Please note, batteries are still a new and developing technology. Please speak with our team about the option that’s best for your business.
The number of solar panels your business needs can vary, dependent on the size of your business, the energy consumption in the business, the size of your roof and the specification of the panels. Our commercial solar experts can provide an obligation-free quote to help you assess how many solar panels your business will need.
A grid-connected commercial solar system can have a payback period of 7-9 years on average, before including the rebate. As solar panels typically have a lifespan of 25 years, it means after the initial investment is paid off, you can expect multiple returns on investment. And you won’t need to rely as heavily, or at all, on expensive grid energy for up to two decades.
