An Adelaide landmark building first licensed as a hotel in 1839 and once known as the Electric Light Hotel, has employed renewable energy systems into its latest refurbishment as a commercial office space.

Designed and installed by Adelaide-based clean energy company MyEnergy Engineering the commercial 29.04 kW rooftop solar system features Trina solar panels mounted with a Schletter roof mount system, chosen to protect the heritage terracotta tile rooftop structure.

The panels are paired with a Deye 25 kW three-phase high-voltage (HV) Battery Hybrid Inverter to manage energy generation and storage, supported by 40.96 kWh of Pylontech Force H3 batteries.

Located in the Adelaide CBD, and after years of closure, the now-named Producers Hotel is being redeveloped to restore its heritage features and create a modern, energy efficient commercial space within.

MyEnergy was engaged to design and install a system that has flexibility to scale as demand at the site grows and also to maintain supply in the case of a power blackout.
