Commercial Solar – Running your business on sunlight
Commercial solar power systems are what SkySolar truly specialise in. ROI, depreciation, local feed-in tariffs – all the economic factors that influence a decision to go solar, we can help explain and make transparent. We love the challenge of taking a brief and specifying a solution for your business that not only provides the power you need, but has a solid business case behind it.

Solar options for your business
Grid-tied
Solar panels, inverter and wiring set up to generate power during daylight hours and export the excess back to grid. You use grid power when solar isn’t available.
Hybrid
Hybrid systems include a home battery to store solar energy for use at night or during a power cut. Reduces your reliance on grid energy but it is still available as a ‘last resort’.
Note: Off Grid Business solutions can be specified if the risk of prolonged bad weather (no power) is outweighed by your desire to gain true independence from the grid.
Case Studies:
Scarborough Fare Fine Culinary Herbs
Scarborough Fare Fine Culinary Herbs chose to run their entire operation on solar power. From the machinery and growing environments, to the freezers and packing shed, all their electricity needs now come directly from the commercial solar system atop the roof of several buildings around the property.
Misco Joinery
Misco Joinery now has the title of largest solar install in Canterbury. Designed to pay itself back in 7 years, covering 65% of their factory energy requirements.
A&G Price
SkySolar are proud to launch the largest hybrid solar system in NZ – spanning 1016 panels and a 290kWh battery bank, installed for A&G Price in Thames. This is our biggest project to date and certainly the most advanced system in the country.
