Who It's For
Businesses beginning their energy transition journey, or those looking to upgrade existing solar with storage to maximise self-consumption and reduce grid dependence.
- Commercial businesses with high daytime energy loads.
- Sites with existing solar seeking to add storage.
- Businesses targeting sustainability goals with measurable outcomes.
- Facilities wanting to reduce TOU tariff exposure and export constraints.
Typical System Size
Our solar + storage solutions are engineered for maximum self-consumption, grid export management, and long-term financial performance. We combine best-in-class PV with intelligent storage to ensure your system adapts to changing energy prices, tariff structures, and grid conditions — not just on day one, but over its full lifetime.
System architecture
Demand Charge & Peak Management
Engineers behind-the-meter control strategies to cap maximum demand, manage peak events, and stabilize site import/export. Includes metering architecture, control setpoints, and dispatch logic aligned to tariff structure and operational constraints.
VPP + FCAS Market Enablement
Designs the controls, metering, and telemetry stack required for VPP orchestration and FCAS participation. Includes dispatch interfaces, response-time tuning, availability and constraint logic, and compliance-aligned testing to support market registration and ongoing performance verification (subject to aggregator and AEMO requirements).
Islanding + Black Start Capability
Designs and validates mode transitions for seamless islanding, load shedding priorities, and black-start sequences. Includes reserve strategy, spinning/non-spinning logic, and re-synchronisation procedures to restore power safely and predictably.
Value Delivered
Cost Savings
Lower your energy bills by using solar and storage to reduce peak demand, shift consumption, and smooth price volatility, without disrupting operations.
Revenue Generation
Turn flexible capacity into a cash-flow asset through VPP services and ancillary market participation pathways, where eligible and approved.
Delivery Scope
- Energy consumption analysis and system sizing.
- PV and storage design, engineering, and equipment procurement.
- Control system configuration for self-consumption, TOU, and export management.
- Installation and grid connection management.
Why One Loop
A solar system is easy to install. A solar system that performs financially over 20+ years takes engineering. One Loop models your consumption profile, tariff structure, and export opportunities before specifying a single panel — because the right design on paper is what delivers the right return in practice.
We're multi-brand and control-agnostic, which means we select equipment based on your site's needs, not our supply agreements. The result is a system built for your energy future, not just today's feed-in tariff.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you work with equipment or systems we already have on site?
In most cases, yes. We assess your existing assets first and design the most cost-effective integration path rather than recommending a full replacement by default.
Do you manage grid connection and regulatory approvals?
Yes. We handle the full compliance pathway — DNSP approvals, commissioning documentation, and any market registration required for your system to operate legally and optimally.
Do you only work with specific equipment brands?
No. We are hardware-agnostic. We select equipment based on your site requirements, performance specifications, and budget — not supplier agreements.
How do you determine the right system size for our site?
We start with your load data, energy bills, and operational requirements. Every system is sized through detailed modelling and simulation before any equipment is specified.
What does ongoing support look like after commissioning?
We provide performance monitoring, operational reporting, and strategy optimisation as an ongoing service — because a system that isn't continuously tuned rarely performs to its full potential.
