Rising electricity prices are one of the biggest controllable costs facing Brisbane businesses today. For warehouses, factories, retail sites, schools, and offices with a large roof and a daytime power bill, commercial solar has become one of the fastest ways to cut overheads and lock in energy costs for the next 20 years.
Bold Electrical Group designs, supplies, and installs commercial solar systems across Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich, and the surrounding South East Queensland region. As A-Grade licensed electricians and SAA-accredited solar installers with over 10 years' experience and 700+ solar systems installed, we manage the entire project in-house system design, switchboard upgrades, Energex or Ergon connection paperwork.

A business that runs 9 to 5 uses most of its power exactly when the sun is doing most of its work. That timing is what makes commercial solar such a strong investment for Brisbane operators, and it's about to get stronger: a federal rebate change landing in October 2026 opens the door to businesses that couldn't access support before.

Combined Savings Potential With Tax Benefits
Big flat roofs and daytime loads from refrigeration, forklifts, and equipment make warehouses some of the strongest performers for commercial solar.
Machinery running through the day means the power your system generates gets used on the spot instead of sold back at a lower rate.
Lighting and air conditioning running all trading day line up neatly with peak solar output.
Daytime occupancy and pressure to cut running costs make schools an easy case for solar.
This is the exact bracket gaining rebate access for the first time from October 2026. If your project didn't stack up under the old 100kW cap, it's worth another look.
If your electricity costs have jumped in the last year or two, a system matched to your daytime usage limits how much more of that you're exposed to.
We size your system against your actual load profile and roof space, not a standard package that's either too small or overbuilt.
Designed and installed to handle commercial three-phase supply and heavier daytime demand from day one.
We deal directly with Energex or Ergon on export limits, connection applications, and sign-off.
We confirm what your system qualifies for under the current and soon-to-expand SRES, then apply it straight to your invoice.
Panels and inverters chosen to hold up under continuous business-hours operation, not entry-level residential gear.
Ongoing monitoring flags underperformance early, so a fault doesn't sit unnoticed for months eating into your savings.
Bold Electrical Group is based in Brisbane, A-Grade licensed, and SAA-accredited, working across Brisbane Northside, Brisbane Southside, Logan, and Ipswich.
We run every stage of a commercial solar project ourselves — the site visit, the design, the Energex or Ergon paperwork, the install, and the handover. You're not passed between a sales team, a design team, and a subcontracted installer. It's the same team the whole way through.
Any solar system installed for a business, industrial site, or institution rather than a private home. It's generally larger than a residential system and needs to be designed around three-phase power and higher daytime demand.
Yes. Systems up to 100kW can already claim an upfront discount through Small-scale Technology Certificates (STCs) under the federal SRES. From 1 October 2026, that scheme expands to cover systems up to 1MW, cutting the installed cost of an eligible mid-sized system by an estimated 20%. We'll check exactly what your system qualifies for as part of your quote.
Roughly $68,000 upfront on a 250kW system, up to somewhere between $230,000 and $316,000 on a 1MW system, depending on your location. Final figures depend on system size, solar zone, and certificate prices at the time of install.
It comes down to your roof space, your usage pattern, and your budget. We provide a free, no-obligation site assessment and size the system around what you'll genuinely use.
Almost always. Energex and Ergon are both actively backing business solar uptake and will fast-track approval for systems that cap their grid exports. We handle that application from start to finish.
Most commercial jobs are completed within a few weeks of design sign-off, though total project timing depends on system size, site access, and network approval turnaround.
