The SolShare System
- The world’s first behind-the-meter
solar sharing solution
- Shares solar to multiple units that
share a roof
- Customers stay on the NEM
- Commercial, residential or mixed
- Capex or no upfront cost model
SolShare Markets
- Existing Apartment Buildings
- New Build Apartments
- Community Housing Providers
- Not for Profits
- Commercial buildings
Case Study:
- 60kW AC for 44 apartments
- 1.36kW inverter capacity each
- 39% reduction in grid energy
- Just $2,000 per apartment
- Payback of <5 years
- 93 tonnes of CO2 saved per year
