Mollongghip
What Mollongghip needs from a system.
Mollongghip is a small rural locality about twenty five kilometres north of Ballarat, at roughly 670 metres above sea level. It is a landscape of paddocks, dams and scattered bush, with houses far apart.
Height and open ground mean cold winters, exposure to wind and plenty of access to sun. Systems here need robust mounting, and because houses are far apart, a battery gives some independence when the supply is interrupted for hours at a time.

Questions
Asked about solar in Mollongghip.
- Does wind exposure affect how panels are mounted?
- Yes. On a high, open site the mounting must be rated for the wind loads on that roof or frame, and the fixings must go into solid structure. We choose rails and fixings for the exposure, not just for the panel weight.
- How big a solar system do people put in around Mollongghip?
- About 9.5 kW is the middle of what we have put in closest to Mollongghip, with the range running from 7.5 kW up to 24 kW. We size yours from your bill and what your roof can hold.
- What size battery suits a home near Mollongghip?
- About 19 kWh is the middle of what we have fitted closest to Mollongghip, and the range goes from 8 kWh to 54 kWh. We work yours out from your evening and overnight use.
- Who handles the connection to the power network?
- We do. The connection application is part of the job.
