Have more control over your project outcomes

Solar Architects, Civil, Structural, product and electrical Engineering.

With 15 years experience in Solar, and 20 in engineering,  the Blue Tongue Team knows how to configure any potential solar area  to achieve the best power  generation and enhance your venue with a high tech green energy feel.  Your solar plant can enhance the building, lobby or foyer areas, and not look out of place as is often the case.

AS BIPV engineers we can design integrated solar into your structures and advise what impact it will have on the buildings power bills.

Feasibility studies with solar approval

Solar Farms, large roof top systems, solar car parks, solar integrated building systems, Hydro developments and Hydrogen planning and renewable funding are now part of the the Blue Tongue Energy planning charter.    

We believe that a feasibility study should have electrical distributor and govt planning approvals, not just be a nice energy paper.  

Initial Analysis

Blue Tongue Solar Provides this first look at your venue  and requirements.  This stage provides you with general sizing, pricing, component selection and an approximate ROI.  This report will provide you with enough information to decide if a system is viable enough for you  to make a decision to proceed further or not. 

We do not provide you with extensive graphing and investment options as the information cannot be fully accurate at this point. Solar companies trying to win your work will put this forward as an official quote which at this point without planning and electrical approvals – still may have hidden costs. 

When a businesses seeks quotes  to lock in a supplier, before themselves or the solar companies have all the facts, leads to incorrect sizing, components, prices, and starts a poor relationship with your solar provider.

Site  evaluations, approvals,and an engineering package are all required to determine final pricing for your generator.  We can supply all the briefs to tender suppliers directly also if required to further reduce project costs.

Engineering , Feasibility and approvals Package for Solar

Blue Tongue solar has developed a program to navigate efficiently the compliance requirements for Australia and to provide better due diligence and smoother installations. To our knowledge we are the only company that has formalized this stage – which puts you the client back in control of your investment.

Once approvals are granted, and the feasibility is done correctly it is possible to lock in your system size, grid specifications, export amounts and of course a reliable price.

The Distributor needs to assess your engineering, design and grid injection size relevant to their network in the specific area, The Network rulings may then require modification of the sizing and stipulate network protection features – all of which changes your outcome, system size, price and return on investment.

Blue Tongue Solar provides this service so that briefs can be tabled for quotes on system installation, Inverter procurement, project management and installation, along with having an accurate assessment of what the benefit will be to the client.

The cost of an RGA package is deducted from the project pricing so there is no extra cost to this stage.  Once you have this package you know the real picture for solar and the impact on the local network and your business – before you commit to the capital for the system.  Having the engineering package and approvals on any given property is an asset in itself and increases the property value.
