Ryde's growing work-from-home community has daytime loads that align perfectly with solar generation — but only a system sized from your actual NMI data will capture that alignment correctly. We design for your real household, not a generic profile.
Ryde's mix of WFH tech workers, diverse housing stock and Parramatta River waterfront homes creates energy profiles that vary widely — getting sizing right requires real data, not suburb averages.
WFH households in the Macquarie Park corridor and across Ryde's tech-savvy community have daytime loads that align precisely with solar generation — computers, monitors, heating and cooling from 8 am to 6 pm. We identify your WFH load pattern from NMI interval data and size your system to capture this daytime self-consumption advantage, which can improve effective savings by 30–50% over a commuter household.
We request your half-hourly Ausgrid interval data via your NMI number and size your system from 12+ months of your actual consumption. A WFH household, a large family, and a dual-income couple in the same street in Eastwood can have radically different optimal system sizes — only your real data reveals which applies to you.
Meadowbank, North Ryde and Top Ryde's growing apartment stock creates strata solar questions. We advise on individual lot options (for top-floor units with roof rights) and whole-building OC proposals that reduce common area electricity costs — and can assist with the OC documentation process from start to approval.
Even WFH households that self-consume heavily during the day face an evening demand peak after solar stops — cooking, TV, heating and cooling from 4–9 pm at 50–57¢/kWh. A correctly sized battery eliminates this peak-period draw. We model the exact battery size needed to cover your specific evening load, avoiding both over-specification and under-delivery.
EV adoption is accelerating across Ryde's tech-aware community. A smart EV charger scheduled to charge from solar surplus during WFH hours effectively turns your commute cost to near-zero. We integrate the EV load into your system design from the outset, so solar, battery and EV charging are sized together rather than bolted on separately.
No brand alignments. No standard packages. We recommend the right combination of panels, inverter and battery for your household's verified consumption and roof — and we'll tell you if a system won't achieve a meaningful return before you spend a dollar.
Share your NMI number and we retrieve your Ausgrid half-hourly interval data. We identify your weekday vs weekend load patterns and WFH daytime peaks before making any sizing recommendation.
We assess your roof area, aspect and any shading from mature street trees or neighbouring properties common in Eastwood, Gladesville and Carlingford. Where shading is present, we specify microinverters or DC optimisers to protect output.
We design a solar and battery combination that maximises daytime self-consumption for your WFH pattern, covers the evening peak load, and integrates EV charging if required.
Our accredited installers handle all electrical work, switchboard assessment and Ausgrid grid connection paperwork.
We verify that real-world generation and self-consumption match our pre-installation model and follow up if any gap emerges.

Significantly. A household where one or more people work from home has a fundamentally different load profile — computers, monitors, heating and cooling running continuously from 8 am to 6 pm, exactly when solar is generating. This daytime demand means you self-consume a much higher proportion of solar output rather than exporting at low feed-in rates. EnerLogic models your specific WFH pattern from your NMI interval data, which typically shows weekday peaks that increase self-consumption by 30–50% versus a dual-income household where both partners commute.
For apartments, the pathway depends on your strata setup. Top-floor or penthouse units sometimes have roof rights that allow individual installations. More commonly, solar needs to be pursued as a whole-building Owners Corporation (OC) initiative — where common-area solar feeds common loads and may reduce levies. EnerLogic can advise on both pathways and help prepare an OC proposal where appropriate.
Yes — the City of Ryde, including Ryde, Eastwood, North Ryde, Meadowbank, Putney, Ermington, Rydalmere and surrounding suburbs, is connected to the Ausgrid distribution network. This means you qualify for the NSW Battery Rebate ($2,400), Ausgrid's time-of-use tariff rates, and EnerLogic can retrieve your interval data from Ausgrid using your NMI number.
Ryde's mix of 1960s–80s brick veneer homes offers roof areas of 30–60 m² — suitable for 8–13 kW systems. The right size depends on your actual consumption. A WFH household of 3 might self-consume 90% of a 10 kW system. The same system on a dual-income couple away all day would export 60% at low feed-in rates. We get the sizing right by using your real NMI data.
Ausgrid's peak tariff (50–57¢/kWh, 4–9 pm weekdays) is where battery savings are captured. Even in a WFH household that self-consumes heavily during the day, there's typically an evening peak (cooking, TV, heating/cooling, EV charging) that arrives after solar stops. A 10–13 kWh battery covers this gap entirely for most Ryde households, eliminating peak-period grid draw and reducing annual bills by $800–$1,200.
Your NMI (National Metering Identifier) is a 10-digit number on your electricity bill that uniquely identifies your Ausgrid connection. EnerLogic requests your half-hourly interval data from Ausgrid using this number — giving us 12+ months of actual consumption at 30-minute resolution. For Ryde's diverse household types, this real data is essential for accurate system sizing.
Yes — and EV adoption is growing quickly in Ryde's tech-aware community. A smart EV charger integrated with your solar system can prioritise charging from surplus solar during the day (ideal for WFH households whose car is at home), then switch to off-peak grid power overnight if solar surplus is insufficient. EnerLogic sizes the entire system — solar, battery and EV charging load — from your NMI data as a single integrated design.
