This notable commercial Solar Power system was installed on the flat roof of St Andrew's House (part of St Andrew's Cathedral School). The site is located on Sydney Square, right next to Sydney Town Hall in the heart of the CBD.
Autonomous Energy solution
- Importantly this system has been installed without creating any penetrations to the membrane coated flat concrete roof, thus ensuring that the waterproof membrane is not affected by the installation of the Solar Panels.
- This was achieved using a 'ballast mounting' system, which was engineered and certified specifically for this project. This type of mounting system uses concrete blocks as ballast, which holds the panels in place without the need for mechanical attachment to the roof which would have required holes to be made in the waterproof membrane for fixing to the concrete slab.
- Autonomous Energy successfully obtained approvals from Sydney City Council who required a full development application as well as building management and their independent consulting engineers, all as part of our turn key service.
- This system features an online solar data monitoring system.
