Reduce Energy Costs. Improve Business Energy Efficiency. Plan for the Future.
Commercial Solar Systems Designed for Business
Energy costs continue to place pressure on businesses across Newcastle, the Hunter Region and Port Stephens. A properly designed commercial solar system can help reduce electricity costs, improve operational efficiency and provide greater certainty over future energy expenses.
Solahart works with businesses across the region to design and deliver commercial solar, battery storage and energy solutions tailored to their operational requirements. Whether you're considering a 30kW system for a small commercial facility or a 100kW+ solar installation for a large industrial site, our team can help identify the right solution for your business.
Solar, Battery and Hot Water Solutions for Business
This integrated approach allows businesses to explore energy savings across multiple areas rather than focusing solely on solar generation.
Commercial Solar Systems from 30kW to 100kW+
Every business has different energy requirements. That's why commercial solar systems should be sized according to your energy usage, operating hours and future growth plans.
We design and install:
- 30kW to 50kW commercial solar systems
- 50kW to 100kW commercial solar systems
- Large-scale commercial solar systems over 100kW
- Solar systems for manufacturing and industrial facilities
- Solar solutions for warehouses, schools, hospitality venues and community facilities
Our commercial solar specialists assess your site's energy profile to determine the most effective system size and configuration for long-term performance and return on investment.
Commercial Battery Storage Solutions
Commercial battery storage allows businesses to store excess solar energy and use it when electricity demand and energy costs are highest.
Battery storage may help businesses:
- Increase solar self-consumption
- Reduce peak demand charges
- Improve energy resilience
- Better manage energy costs
- Maximise the value of their solar investment
We can assess a range of commercial battery storage options, from smaller business battery systems through to large-scale commercial energy storage solutions designed for more energy-intensive operations. Commercial battery storage can also be integrated with existing solar systems to improve overall energy performance.
Commercial Heat Pump Solutions
Commercial heat pumps provide an energy-efficient alternative to traditional electric or gas water heating systems, helping businesses reduce operating costs while maintaining reliable hot water supply.
Using renewable energy from the surrounding air, commercial heat pumps can deliver large volumes of hot water while using significantly less electricity than conventional water-heating technologies.
Commercial heat pumps are particularly well suited to businesses with consistent or high hot water demand, including:
- Hotels and accommodation providers
- Healthcare and aged care facilities
- Sports and aquatic centres
- Schools and universities
- Manufacturing and processing facilities
- Hospitality venues
- Multi-residential developments
Why Choose Commercial Heat Pumps?
Commercial heat pumps can help businesses:
- Reduce water heating energy consumption
- Lower operating costs
- Reduce greenhouse gas emissions
- Support business sustainability goals
- Improve energy efficiency across facilities
- Future-proof against rising energy prices
Available in a range of capacities, commercial heat pump systems can be designed for both new developments and retrofit projects, providing scalable solutions for businesses of all sizes.
For sites with significant hot water demand, commercial heat pumps can also be integrated with solar PV and battery storage systems to create a more comprehensive energy management solution.
Commercial Solar Hot Water Systems
For businesses where hot water is a major operational requirement, commercial solar hot water can provide substantial long-term energy savings.
By harnessing energy from the sun to pre-heat or directly heat water, commercial solar hot water systems can significantly reduce reliance on conventional energy sources and help lower ongoing operating expenses.
Commercial solar hot water is commonly used across:
- Hotels and resorts
- Healthcare facilities
- Aged care homes
- Schools and boarding facilities
- Apartment developments
- Sporting facilities
- Aquatic centres
- Industrial and manufacturing sites
Designed for Large-Scale Hot Water Demand
Commercial solar hot water systems can be engineered to meet a wide range of hot water requirements, from small commercial facilities through to large-scale developments with substantial daily demand.
System designs may include:
- Roof-mounted solar collectors
- High-capacity storage tanks
- Boosting systems for peak demand periods
- Integration with heat pumps and other water heating technologies
Benefits of Commercial Solar Hot Water
Commercial solar hot water can help businesses:
- Reduce energy costs associated with water heating
- Lower reliance on grid electricity or gas
- Improve sustainability performance
- Reduce carbon emissions
- Support environmental and ESG objectives
- Deliver long-term operational savings
With decades of experience in solar hot water technology, Solahart can help businesses evaluate whether commercial solar hot water, commercial heat pumps or a combination of both technologies offers the best outcome for their facility.
