Designing your solar system

Choosing the right solar set-up for your home or business

Solar system design should start with the property and its electricity use, not with a one-size-fits-all product package. Revolve Electrical designs residential and commercial solar systems throughout Northland.

What we assess

• Electricity use and when that energy is consumed
• Roof orientation, usable area, shading and mounting options
• Switchboard and electrical capacity
• Grid connection and network requirements
• Battery storage and backup objectives
• Future EV charging or system expansion
• Budget and the customer’s priorities

North-facing roof space can be useful, but east- and west-facing layouts can also work well depending on the site and when electricity is used. We model the proposed layout rather than relying on a generic rule.

Sigenergy or Enphase?

Revolve can design Sigenergy DC-coupled hybrid solar-and-battery systems and Enphase AC microinverter solar systems. Each approach has different strengths. We explain the recommended architecture and confirm the exact products, specifications and warranty information in the project proposal.
