Commercial & Industrial Solar Systems
30kW to 5MW arrays engineered for Queensland businesses that draw power around the clock.
Commercial solar only pays back when the array is matched to how your business actually draws power. SEBSS begins with your interval data rather than a panel count, then designs around your daytime load, roof structure, and network export limits across Moreton Bay, the Sunshine Coast, and South East Queensland. Every system is engineered, installed, and commissioned by CEC-accredited Licensed Electrical Contractors under Licence 73850.

How We Deliver
Site & Data Review
We pull twelve months of interval data and assess roof structure, switchboard capacity, and shading.
Engineering Design
Array layout, inverter selection, and export strategy are modelled against your actual load curve.
Installation & Commissioning
Staged installation keeps your operations running, followed by full testing and network sign-off.
Monitoring & Support
Live output monitoring, performance reporting, and ongoing maintenance from our local team.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a commercial installation take?
A 100kW rooftop system is typically installed within five to ten working days once network approval is granted. Arrays above 500kW are staged so production and trading hours are never interrupted.
Will solar cover our night-time usage?
Rooftop solar generates during daylight only. Businesses running 24/7 usually pair the array with battery storage, or use export credits earned during the day to offset overnight tariff charges.
Do we need approval from Ergon or Energex?
Yes. Any system above 30kW requires a formal connection application. SEBSS prepares and lodges it, including export limiting where the network requires it.
What financial incentives apply?
Systems up to 100kW claim STCs as an upfront discount on installation. Larger projects generate Large-scale Generation Certificates instead, which we register and manage on your behalf.
