Solar project / Case 01
Harbour Works Solar
A roof-led system for a mixed-use harbour workshop, designed around daytime demand and a battery-ready next phase.
The brief
Document the constraint before the outcome.
A mixed-use harbour workshop needed solar generation that respected a fragmented roof, strong daytime demand and a later battery phase. The design started with usable roof zones and load timing before equipment selection.

Battery-ready
RESULT
Monitoring live
The system decisions
- Explain why the array layout was chosen
- Explain inverter and battery decisions
- Explain cable routes, access or installation constraints
- Explain what the monitoring setup exposes to the owner
Evidence before claims
Show what can be proved.
The demo intentionally avoids invented savings and yield figures. In a live project, measured production, consumption and project-specific warranty data can be added here once verified.
One connected system
Power should move where it is useful.
The design decides what happens first: use solar directly, charge storage, support the building later or interact with the grid according to the installed configuration.

Project field notes
Look closer. The roof tells the story.
Array position, access, shade, cable routes and future storage all shape a system before the first panel is fixed in place.
DESIGN CHECK
Build around the site, not around a brochure.
Every installation should make its constraints visible. That is where a credible proposal starts.
Your roof is already there
