Logistics, food and farming

Palmerston North sits at the centre of the lower North Island’s freight and food processing network. Distribution centres, coolstores and processing plants around the city and along the Feilding and Bulls corridor 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 Powerco connection.

Dairy, cropping and irrigation

The Manawatū plains combine dairy with cropping and irrigation. 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 and the campus neighbourhood

From Hokowhitu and Fitzherbert around Massey University to Feilding and Ashhurst, 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.
