Case Study
ABBCA Developments Pty Ltd
Project Size:
32.3kW Rooftop Solar
ABBCA Developments Pty Ltd, a forward-thinking property developer in NSW, has taken a big step toward sustainability by installing a 32.3kW rooftop solar system. Known for building high-quality homes and commercial spaces, the company is now applying that same care and vision to its own operations. This move wasn’t just about cutting energy costs — it was a conscious decision to lower their environmental footprint and lead by example in responsible development.
With the expertise of AYKA Solar, a high-performance solar solution was designed to meet the company’s large-scale energy requirements. The system now powers daily operations, including design offices, site coordination tools, and back-office infrastructure—offsetting a significant portion of ABBCA’s energy usage with clean, renewable power.

OBJECTIVES
ABBCA Developments aimed to integrate sustainability into its operational footprint while staying true to its values of innovation, quality, and future-focused development. As electricity costs continued to rise, the management team recognised an opportunity to improve energy efficiency, reduce carbon emissions, and set a positive example in the property development industry. Going solar aligned with their long-term vision to not only create sustainable buildings but to operate as a sustainable business. The transition to solar also allowed ABBCA to demonstrate climate-conscious leadership to clients, investors, and the wider community.
SOLUTION
To meet ABBCA’s high daytime energy demand, AYKA Solar designed and installed a custom 32.3kW rooftop solar system using high-efficiency solar panels and a robust smart inverter solution. The system was engineered for maximum output during business hours, ensuring seamless power delivery across all departments—from planning and administration to client meetings and digital workflows.
Real-time performance monitoring was integrated to provide full visibility into system performance and financial savings. The installation was completed with meticulous attention to detail and zero disruption to operations, thanks to AYKA Solar’s experienced commercial project team.
“Our decision to go solar reflects who we are as a business—forward-thinking, responsible, and committed to shaping a better future.”

CHALLENGES
Installing a solar system this large wasn’t just about fitting panels on the roof — it took thoughtful planning and a keen eye for detail. With limited space and energy needs that changed throughout the day, the real challenge was making sure the system worked efficiently without compromising the building’s structure or appearance.
AYKA Solar rose to the occasion with a detailed site assessment, smart panel positioning, and an electrical setup tailored to ABBCA’s unique operations. The result? A robust, future-ready solar system that not only meets today’s energy needs but is also built to grow with the business.
THE FUTURE
With solar now powering their daily operations, ABBCA Developments Pty Ltd is setting its sights on even bigger sustainability goals. Plans are already underway for battery storage solutions and energy-efficient upgrades across future projects. With real-time insights from their solar system, the team can now make more informed choices — turning energy data into smarter strategies that save money and support their sustainability goals. More importantly, ABBCA is using this success to inspire change—positioning solar as a practical and impactful part of modern property development, both in their own operations and across the projects they deliver.
