Northlands Corner Shopping Centre

Our flagship: solar, battery storage and generator backup at a working shopping centre, with fibre-enabled smart water and power metering and billing, owned and operated by Northlands. Commissioned in August 2024 and run under a PPA.

Read a summary of this video

Michael Colin, our Managing Director, takes you through Northlands Corner Shopping Centre: the solar on its roofs, the battery room with ATESS power conversion and lithium-ion storage, the diesel backup generator, and the smart metering in place for the centre’s tenants. Northlands Energy owns and operates the plant under a power purchase agreement, so the centre needed no upfront capital.
