Going solar in Wakerley
Brisbane's bayside east, from Wynnum and Manly through Tingalpa and Wakerley, mixes breezy bayfront homes with quieter family streets, and salt air near the water is a real design consideration.
Brisbane covers everything from Queenslanders with tin roofs and tight inner-city lots to big brick homes in the southern and western suburbs. Every roof is different, which is why we measure and design each one on site.
Wakerley 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.

Wakerley: history and local area
Early settler John William Wakerley is remembered in the suburb's name. Records of its first years are thin, though a 1927 photograph shows a local family living in a house built from kerosene tins, a reminder of how basic life could be on the city fringe. Education arrived much later, with The Agnew School moving here from Norman Park in 2008.
South of the Brisbane River and close to the southern bayside suburbs, Wakerley covers 4.9 square kilometres and had roughly 8,700 residents in 2021. The private OneSchool Global campus on Ingleston Road is the main school within its borders. Kids head to Gumdale or Manly West for government primary schools, and to Wynnum or Brisbane Bayside State College for high school.
Roof orientation varies from street to street across this suburb, so it is worth checking whether east and west facing panels would better match a household's morning and evening usage than a single north array.
