Case Study
Nestech Electrical Pty Ltd
Project Size:
7.8kW Rooftop Solar
Commercial Solar System in Eastlakes NSW:
Eastern Creek, NSW – Nestech Electrical Pty Ltd, a trusted provider of quality electrical services, took the initiative in showing the way for the rest of Australian businesses and installed solar at its NSW business premises. Driven by a commitment to operational and environmental excellence, the team made a strategic investment in renewable energy to slash energy costs and minimise environmental impact, all while highlighting the potential of smart electrical solutions.
To support this transition, AYKA Solar designed and installed a 7.8kW rooftop solar system to complement the company’s daytime loads—running office equipment, service tools, and lighting using clean and cost-effective energy. This project stands as a strong example of how a Commercial Solar System in Eastlakes NSW can deliver both environmental and financial benefits for small to mid-sized businesses.

OBJECTIVES
Nestech Electrical wanted to reflect its guiding principles – efficiency, innovation, and sustainability – in its working environment. Energy costs were increasing, and the team needed a solution that could reduce their electricity bills and align with their long-term vision for responsible energy use. The decision to install a Commercial Solar System in Eastlakes NSW was not just about cost savings; it was a strategic move to demonstrate leadership in the electrical services industry.
By embracing solar, Nestech Electrical showcased how intelligent energy choices can benefit property owners, strengthen business operations, and significantly reduce carbon emissions. The project highlights their commitment to using emerging technology to build a more sustainable and energy-independent future.
SOLUTION
AYKA Solar installed a bespoke 7.8kW rooftop solar system designed specifically to meet the energy needs of Nestech. The setup was carefully engineered to generate maximum energy during business hours, allowing the company to offset most of its daytime power use—demonstrating the practical benefits of a Commercial Solar System in Eastlakes NSW.
What the team received was more than just panels. A smart inverter with real-time monitoring capabilities was integrated, allowing the team to track both power generation and usage trends. The installation was executed with precision and care, ensuring zero disruption to onsite services and full compliance with all safety and technical regulations.
“As electricians, we pride ourselves on leading by example. A move toward solar demonstrates to our clients and team that we are all in regarding intelligent, forward-thinking energy solutions.”

CHALLENGES
They needed a solar system to power Nestech’s office and workshop that could handle a mix of energy loads—from computers and lighting to occasionally used tools. While there was ample roof space, it needed to be utilised efficiently to maximise energy output per square foot—making the project a perfect fit for a Commercial Solar System in Eastlakes NSW.
AYKA Solar’s expert design engineering team proposed an optimised panel layout and inverter capacity tailored to Nestech’s demand profile. Their high-efficiency system design helped eliminate production losses. The installation went seamlessly and was completed within a week, fully integrated with the company’s existing infrastructure and ready to deliver immediate benefits.
THE FUTURE
Having successfully implemented solar power within their operations, Nestech Electrical Pty Ltd is now exploring additional avenues to enhance sustainability across the company. Their experience with a Commercial Solar System in Eastlakes NSW has opened the door to new opportunities like battery storage, aimed at increasing energy independence and extending the benefits of solar beyond daylight hours.
Real-time performance monitoring of the system is already shaping long-term energy strategies, enabling Nestech to make informed, data-driven decisions. Beyond their internal progress, the company is using their solar journey to inspire customers and industry partners—demonstrating the tangible environmental and financial benefits of switching to renewable energy within the electrical services sector.
"Solar has enabled us to run a more efficient operation and minimise our environmental footprint. It is a smart investment that is consistent with our values.”
