ER Solar delivered a sophisticated 70.3kW turnkey solar solution for the prestigious Como Terraces apartment complex in South Yarra, incorporating innovative shared energy technology to equitably distribute clean power across 60 apartments in this upscale multi-residential development.
The project featured a distributed installation split across multiple buildings, with detailed energy modelling to optimise generation for common areas (lighting, lifts, ventilation, and pumping) while integrating 4 Allume Solshare units for behind-the-meter allocation of solar energy directly to individual tenancies. This cutting-edge approach overcomes traditional barriers in strata properties, allowing residents to benefit from lower electricity bills without individual metering complexities.
Utilising premium Tier-1 components and precise rooftop design tailored to the site’s orientation in Melbourne’s desirable inner-east, the system maximises solar capture while maintaining the architectural elegance of the development. The result transforms Como Terraces into a sustainable landmark, significantly reducing grid dependency, slashing body corporate energy costs, minimising carbon emissions, and enhancing property value in one of Victoria’s most sought-after neighbourhoods.
