The project
Lumasol supplied the mounting structures for one of the larger commercial rooftop solar installations in the country. Given the scale of the project, our team designed and provided customised solutions to ensure structural integrity and an efficient installation. The system was engineered to accommodate the unique site requirements, optimising panel placement for maximum energy generation.
