New build and commercial solar, Victoria
New build solar and energy efficiency
Link 2 Solutions designs and installs solar for builders, developers and commercial sites: the energy package on new builds, lot after lot for volume home builders and as one scope on commercial new builds, and commercial solar sized to the site's load on existing buildings. Every worker who steps onto your site is directly employed by us.
Who we build for.
- Volume home builders
- The same energy package on every lot, to your standard specification, with certificates ready for every handover.
- Developers
- Solar and all-electric services designed into the estate, the multi-unit development or the building from the start, priced as one number.
- Commercial builders
- The solar scope delivered inside your program, coordinated with the other services.
- Business owners
- Commercial solar on an existing building, sized to what the site actually uses rather than what fits on the roof.
The whole energy package, under one contract.
New homes and new commercial buildings now have to meet energy efficiency requirements that older buildings never did. We design the package to meet them, then install it as one scope so there is one program, one set of test results and one phone number.
- Rooftop solar sized to the home or the building
- Commercial rooftop and ground-mount arrays sized to the site's load
- Heat pump hot water
- All-electric switchboards and distribution
- Battery-ready wiring and switchboard space
- EV charger provision for garages and car parks
- Network connection applications
- Certificate of Electrical Safety and handover documentation
From tender to handover.
Tender
We price the energy package from the drawings and the specification, list our assumptions and flag what is missing before it becomes a variation.
Standardise
For volume builders we agree one package and one drawing set, so every lot is priced, built and certified the same way.
Rough-in
Boards, cable routes, solar conduit and hot water circuits go in while the frame is open.
Fit-off and connect
Panels, inverter, heat pump and board fitted, tested and connected, with the network application handled by us.
Handover
Certificates, test results and system documentation delivered with the defects list closed out.
Commercial solar
Solar that suits the site, not just the roof.
On commercial sites, new or existing, we design the system around the site's load rather than the roof area. A typical commercial system for us is around 100 kW. The panels are the visible part; the design, the switchboard and the connection decide how well it performs. The inverters, batteries and switchboards behind it are covered under commercial energy solutions.
- Sized to the load
- Twelve months of interval data from the meter shows when the site uses power, so the system matches daytime use instead of exporting most of what it makes.
- Existing buildings
- Solar added to a building already in use, once the roof structure and the switchboard are checked.
- Approvals
- Larger systems need the distributor's approval to connect. We prepare the application and allow for it in the program.
- Maintained by us
- The team that installs the system maintains it, with one contact for performance questions and faults.

New builds and commercial sites
Questions builders and businesses ask us.
Do you work with volume home builders?
Yes. Volume home builders are one of our core clients. We deliver the same solar and all-electric package to your standard specification, scheduled to your build program across Victoria.
What is in a new build energy package?
Typically rooftop solar, heat pump hot water, an all-electric switchboard and battery-ready wiring. EV charger provision and induction circuits are added where the specification calls for them.
Can you price from tender drawings?
Yes. We price from drawings and specifications, list our inclusions and exclusions, then flag gaps in the documents at tender.
Do you handle the network connection?
Yes. We prepare and lodge the connection application for every system we install.
Do you use subcontractors on site?
No. Every worker who steps onto your site is directly employed by Link 2 Solutions.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Link 2 Solutions is a registered electrical contractor in Victoria, licence REC 27599, with a full WHS management system.
How big a solar system does a commercial site need?
The right size comes from the site's load profile, not the roof area. A system that matches daytime use usually pays back faster than one that exports most of what it makes, so we start with twelve months of interval data from the meter.
Can solar be added to an existing commercial building?
Yes, if the roof structure and the switchboard can take it. Older boards often need upgrading first, which is why we check both before quoting.
