Case Study
Zorawar Homes Pty Ltd
Project Size:
20.24kW Rooftop Solar
Zorawar Homes Pty Ltd, a respected name in custom home construction and property development across NSW, has taken a bold step toward sustainability by investing in solar energy for its office operations. As a company that helps clients build future-ready homes, it was only fitting to lead by example with a clean energy transition of their own.
In collaboration with AYKA Solar, a 20.24kW rooftop solar system was installed, designed specifically to meet the high daytime energy demands of their busy office. From design studios and administrative departments to project planning and client meetings, the entire business now operates on solar-powered efficiency, delivering both environmental and economic value daily.

OBJECTIVES
Zorawar Homes Pty Ltd sought to embody its values — quality, sustainability, and innovation — within the business itself. With energy costs rising and the construction industry shifting toward more eco-friendly practices, the team recognised solar energy as a wise and forward-thinking investment. The primary objectives were to reduce electricity costs, achieve energy independence, and enhance their green credentials, both internally and in client-facing initiatives. Ultimately, this transition supports their vision of creating homes and communities that are better for people and the planet.
SOLUTION
AYKA Solar designed a custom 20.24 kW rooftop solar system tailored to Zorawar Homes’ unique energy needs. With top-quality panels and a reliable inverter setup, the system delivers consistent performance throughout the day. It also comes with a live monitoring platform, allowing the team to easily check how much energy they’re generating — and how much they’re saving — in real-time.
Installation was completed with careful scheduling to minimise interference with project timelines and office productivity. With zero disruption and high efficiency, the system began delivering clean, reliable energy from day one.
“As builders of modern, sustainable homes, it was important for us to practice what we preach. Solar has reduced our costs and elevated our brand.”

CHALLENGES
One of the main challenges was ensuring the solar system could meet the heavy daytime power demands, encompassing design software, lighting, HVAC, and communication systems. Additionally, the roof’s layout required panels to be positioned precisely to maximise energy efficiency without compromising the aesthetic appeal.
AYKA Solar overcame these challenges with a detailed site assessment, precision engineering, and a layout optimised for both performance and architectural integrity. The final system delivers strong, stable output while maintaining a professional appearance.
THE FUTURE
Since making the switch to solar, Zorawar Homes Pty Ltd is exploring additional ways to enhance sustainability across its business. They’re considering features such as electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, intelligent energy management, and green building certifications for their upcoming projects. With solar now covering most of their daytime power needs, they’re not just cutting costs — they’re also standing out as a forward-thinking, eco-friendly builder in a fast-changing industry.
“As soon as we went solar, we felt more in control of our energy and proud to shrink our carbon footprint. It’s an investment that looks ahead — and we’re excited about what’s next.”
