Going solar in Cleveland
The Redlands coast runs from Capalaba and Birkdale through Cleveland and Victoria Point to Redland Bay and the Southern Moreton Bay Islands, with plenty of larger blocks around Mount Cotton and Sheldon.
Redlands homes face Moreton Bay, so salt air, sea breezes and the island communities all shape how we design and install systems from Capalaba to Redland Bay.
Cleveland is on the Energex network. Most homes can export up to 5kW per phase on a standard connection, and newer dynamic connections allow more. We size your inverter to get the most from those limits and lodge the Energex application for you.
- Being close to the water, Cleveland gets salt-laden sea breezes. We use corrosion-resistant racking, stainless fixings and panels and inverters rated for coastal sites, and we design to the local wind loading.

Cleveland: history and local area
Surveyed in 1840 and pitched as a possible seaport in 1841, Cleveland was proclaimed a township in December 1850. A navigation beacon went up on Cleveland Point in 1847, the first school and mail service came in 1861, and trains reached Brisbane in 1889. Rail stopped in 1960 and returned about twenty years later. Raby Bay canal estate works began in 1983.
Sitting on the western shore of Moreton Bay, it is the administrative and cultural centre of the Redlands, with Redland Hospital, the art gallery, performing arts centre, museum and showgrounds. G.J. Walter Park and the lighthouse at Cleveland Point draw weekend crowds, and the Sunday markets are a fixture. Toondah Harbour runs the bay island ferries, while Raby Bay's former mangroves now hold canal homes and a marina.
Raby Bay canal homes and waterfront streets cop salty sea air off Moreton Bay, so marine-rated mounting gear and periodic panel washing help a system hold its output over the years.
