Project Overview
Commercial Solar System Installation in Alexandria
Project Overview:
MPV Solar delivered a 9.24kW commercial solar installation in Alexandria for a leading energy company constructing a new facility that required solar to meet NCC and commercial energy-efficiency compliance standards. Located in Sydney’s Inner South, the site needed a reliable, high-performance system designed during the build to ensure immediate compliance and operational readiness.
MPV Solar was chosen for our proven experience delivering commercial solar systems for energy-sector clients across Sydney, supplying full engineering, documentation, and grid approval to support the project’s tight construction schedule.
System Specifications:
- Panels: 21 × 440W Canadian Solar Panels (9.24kW)
- Inverter: 1 × 10kW Fronius Three-Phase
- System Type: Grid-connected commercial solar system
Project Objectives:
-
Meet all NCC and energy-efficiency compliance requirements for the new facility.
-
Reduce daytime grid reliance and operational energy costs from day one.
-
Deliver a compact, high-output system suitable for dense inner-city rooftops.
-
Use premium components including Canadian Solar panels + Fronius inverter.
-
Work seamlessly within the builder’s construction timeline.
-
Ensure the system is fully future-proof and battery-ready.
Project Summary:
MPV Solar designed and installed a 9.24kW commercial solar system for an energy-industry client in Alexandria, using high-efficiency Canadian Solar panels paired with a 10kW Fronius three-phase inverter. The installation required careful coordination with the construction team due to tight site access and inner-city restrictions, ensuring full compliance with NCC, engineering standards, and Sydney grid requirements.
The completed system now provides consistent daytime solar generation, long-term cost reduction, and a compliant sustainability solution for the client’s new facility.

FAQs – Alexandria Commercial Solar System Installation
What size commercial solar system is recommended for businesses in Alexandria?
Most small-to-medium commercial sites in Alexandria benefit from systems between 6kW and 30kW, depending on energy use and roof space. The energy company in this project selected a 9.24kW system, ideal for new-build compliance and daytime energy reduction.
Is solar required for new commercial developments in Alexandria?
Yes. Many new Sydney developments must meet NCC energy-efficiency and sustainability requirements, and solar is one of the most effective pathways to compliance. MPV Solar designs systems specifically to meet these standards.
What size solar system is best for a commercial building?
It depends on usage, roof area, and operational hours. Most small commercial facilities choose systems from 10kW to 30kW, while larger sites may require 50kW–100kW+. MPV Solar completes full load profiling to recommend the optimal size.
Why is a three-phase inverter important for commercial solar systems?
A three-phase Fronius inverter provides better load balancing, high conversion efficiency, smoother power delivery, and professional-grade monitoring — essential for commercial operations and energy-sector clients.
What are the benefits of installing solar during construction?
Installing solar during a new build:
-
Ensures NCC compliance from day one
-
Reduces build-stage electrical costs
-
Avoids disruptions once the facility is operational
-
Allows seamless integration with engineering and electrical plans
Can this Alexandria solar system be expanded with batteries later?
Yes. The system is fully battery-ready, and MPV Solar can integrate commercial battery storage as energy demands grow.
