After meeting with the management team at Sunny Hills Childcare, we designed a system and showed them how reducing energy consumption was going to save them over 50% of their energy usage.
We also talked to them about delivering a fun, educational, and interactive show to the children about where electricity comes from and how solar works, plus we installed a monitoring screen in their reception with live energy data.

Energy Partners not only install solar systems in child care centres to halve their energy bills, but to create powerful interactive educational experiences
Saving you money through tariff optimization.
Through years of experience with tariff optimisation and solar installation, our mission has been to help Queensland businesses reach energy independence. Ensuring your business is on the right tariff can mean significant savings.
At Energy Partners, we will analyse your business’ electrical data to work out the right tariff for you.

IT’S ALL IN THE DETAILS
Solar Design.
Utilising the SolarEdge Designer we pull in the solar irradiance data to help with the annual solar yield and estimated energy production.
In all of our designs we allow for soiling as well as Light Induced Degradation (LID) - this is degradation of the panels in the first operating hours in respect to the STC values.
We have built the site in a 3D model to help identify shading losses and improve system production estimate.
This design works well to maximise the self consumption of the solar energy and the way the centre uses power to run their operations
NO SHORT CUTS
Installation.
This project is a classic example of how Childcare Centre's can reduce their energy consumption by 50% and also export electricity back into the grid to off-set grid usage.
We chose to utilise the SolarEdge integrated PV equipment to provide high transparency of system performance and Safe-DC enables panel shutdown to 1 volt DC when the inverter is not operating.
Potential faults are reported, detected and located through the SolarEdge monitoring portal allowing effective preventative maintenance. The monitoring has a playback feature to identify panel issues or performance drops
The SolarEdge DC Optimised inverter maximises power generation at the individual panel-level while lowering the cost of energy production by the PV system for a higher return on investment.
