# Solar Expansion in Glenview, Sunshine Coast

![](https://halcolenergy.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/DJI_0158-800x533.jpeg)

Located in Glenview on the Sunshine Coast, this customer initially had a 6.6kW Sofar solar system installed by Halcol Energy several years ago. Recently, they decided to expand their solar capacity with the addition of a 7kW Redback solar system, complete with a 10kW battery. The property operates on a 3-phase power system, which allows for better energy distribution and efficiency.

**System Details:**

- **Original System:** 6.6kW Sofar solar system
- **New Addition:** 7kW Redback solar system + 10kW Redback battery
- **Total System Capacity:** 13.3kW of solar power
- **Property Type:** 3-phase power

**Expected Performance:**

With the combined system size of 13.3kW, the solar setup is projected to generate an average of 54kWh per day over the course of the year. This output will fluctuate seasonally, with higher energy production in the summer and lower production during the winter due to changing sunlight conditions.

**Benefits for the Customer:**

- **Enhanced Energy Independence:** The 10kW battery enables the customer to store surplus solar energy, ensuring availability during the evening and on overcast days.
- **Lower Electricity Costs:** The expanded system significantly reduces reliance on grid electricity, resulting in substantial savings on energy bills.
- **Optimised Power Usage:** The combination of a 3-phase power setup and a larger solar system allows for more efficient distribution and usage of energy throughout the property.
- **Sustainability:** With 13.3kW of solar power, the customer now benefits from a greener energy solution, contributing to a more sustainable lifestyle.

**Why Halcol Energy?**

Halcol Energy worked closely with the Glenview resident to assess their increasing energy needs and design a custom solution. By combining their existing Sofar system with a new Redback solar and battery setup, Halcol provided a robust solution that maximised solar generation and energy storage capacity. This project demonstrates Halcol Energy’s expertise in delivering tailored, high-performance renewable energy systems that meet the individual needs of Brisbane and Sunshine Coast residents.
