Logistics, food and farming

Manawatū-Whanganui sits at the centre of the lower North Island’s freight and food processing network. Distribution centres, coolstores and processing plants along the Feilding and Bulls corridor and around Whanganui run steady daytime loads on large roofs, which is the best case for commercial solar. We model the interval data, size the system and manage the network connection.

Dairy, cropping and irrigation

The region’s plains combine dairy with cropping and irrigation, and the hill country runs sheep and beef. Dairy sheds, irrigation pumps and stock water systems are all designs we build for, from a standalone solar pump to a shed roof array with battery. The wind is real here, and mounting is specified for it.

Homes across the region

From Feilding and Levin to Whanganui and the towns in between, we design hybrid, battery-ready home systems from 8 to 10 kW upwards, with EV-ready wiring as standard and installation by SEANZ-authorised, EWRB-registered contractors.
