S-5! identified a need in the market for prudent solar attachment solutions and the opportunity to scale within the Asia-Pacific region. The company is pleased to welcome Blair Irvine to its team. 

Irvine will fill S-5!’s newly created ANZ Business and Engineering Manager role.  He will be responsible for providing on-site technical support and developing industry relationships with EPCs and distributors to increase market awareness.

With 15 years of industry experience, Irvine has a deep understanding of all aspects of the industry and is very familiar with the S-5! product line through his previous work experience. He brings an array of hands-on construction skills and technical consulting in a business development capacity, predominantly for large scale commercial/industrial building projects, providing solutions and growth for companies and clients.

Originally from New Zealand, Irvine attended Aoraki Polytechnic, completing certificate courses and training in various aspects of construction.  He lived in Melbourne for 10+ years to further develop his career before relocating back to New Zealand. 

A proven technology, S-5! has a global portfolio of more than 3.5 Gigawatts of rooftop solar arrays on some of the world’s most notable buildings, including many Fed-Ex and Walmart buildings; some 700 Costco stores in eight countries, including 5 in Australia; many airports; and the corporate headquarters for Google, IBM, NATO, NREL and Apple―including a 7.4 MW rooftop solar array ― in addition to 15,000+ residential solar installations in 50+ countries from Australia to Zimbabwe.
