Project overview
Emerging IT contacted the Quality Energy team in order to solve their high energy costs through powerful, cost-effective solutions.
Rising electricity bills and uncertainty in wholesale electricity prices meant it was the right time for Emerging IT to take control of their energy spend.
Uncertainty in the energy market puts a large strain on SME’s, with company profits quickly swallowed in times of high kWh rates.
Quality Energy analysed Emerging IT’s power profile and overlaid that with their energy spend to help design the most cost-effective solution for their business.While a standard, string-based solar system was quickly ruled out because of shading issues, a more complex but effective Solar Edge Power Optimiser solution meant the shading issues could be overcome and a superior output achieved.

Project Outcomes
With an innovative approach to commercial solar power, Emerging IT was given access to a sustainable, energy-efficient solution and long-term energy cost reductions.
The Benefit
A 39.8kW solar system for Emerging IT helped reduce their electricity account by an estimated $8,000 in the first year alone, producing an average of over 140kWh of clean power per day. This offsets their current grid requirement by over 27% and offered a 20% internal rate of return.
