Going solar in Coochiemudlo Island
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.
Coochiemudlo Island 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, Coochiemudlo Island 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.
- We plan island jobs around the barge timetable and bring everything needed in one trip, so your install is not dragged out.

Coochiemudlo Island: history and local area
Matthew Flinders came ashore here on 19 July 1799. Between 1825 and 1850 Europeans called it Innis Island, but the name that stuck is an English version of Yuggera words for "red" and "stone", which fits the iron-rich cliff on the southwest side. The population has edged up each census, from 658 in 2006 to 850 in 2021.
There is no bridge, just a 2 km ferry ride from Victoria Point. Sandy beaches run along the southern, eastern and northern shores, with mangroves on the western side and a walking track through the Melaleuca Wetland Reserve. The community hall, Pineridge Chapel, fire and ambulance stations, a jetty and a boat ramp serve the island, and East Coochie Reef lies offshore.
On a small island with no road link, a home battery can keep lights and fridges running through outages, and every panel frame and fixing needs to cope with constant salt air.
