This utility scale rooftop system was a complex design with the unique incorporation of a central inverter and rooftop PV. There are five main roof areas, one of which towering above the rest at ~35m in height, and due to the nature of the business majority of the rooftops contained many obstacles that requried avoidance.

Sub-array cables were to reitcualte along multiple rooftops, down buildings walls and into a trench that would ultimately open up underneath the central inverter. Through a detailed analysis using in house tools and proprietary software, the sub-array cable sizes running from optimised combiner box locations on the roof to the central inverter were kept at a minimum.

10 MWh of batteries were also connected to the hybrid central inverter, with the engineering completed by the competent team at Mindaro. Four shipping container sizes batteries were strategically placed in a tight area adjacent to the central inverter that allowed for simplified trenching and no interruptions with existing underground services.

The connection of 4MW PV and 10MWh of BESS into a 4.95MVA central inverter was an enjoyable project for our team with plenty of learnings along the way. Our client was left with nothing but praise.

Mindaro worked to tight deadlines and a stringent Owner's Engineer to deliver For Construction drawings for PV array's on 95 KFC rooftops. The key to delivering this rollout was to adapt our product in order to meet the clients needs whilst also allowing for streamlined engineering and project submission. 

The rooftops of SME's are never easy, especially those with an abundance of HVAC on a small footprint that also incorporate many verandah's/awnings. Mindaro's ability to analyse and interpret the information from the site inspections as well as the structural certificates allowed for accurate and concise drawings for the installers to follow. 

Get in touch with Mindaro the next time you have a rollout of projects to ensure you meet your project deadlines on time.

The site at Southgate Plaza had an existing rooftop PV array and wished to utilise this generated energy more efficiently with the installation of batteries. This project involved complex engineering from the team at Mindaro due to the requirement of a new distribution board that would intercept the main supply to the shopping centre. 

Mindaro performed both protection coordination and shirt circuit studies to ensure that the new board would not interrupt the supply to the site, whilst also housing the supply for the new battery system. 

Coordination with structural and civil engineers, as well as OEMs was required to ensure all of the desired equipment fit safely within the allowable footprint on site. This involved detailed trench reticulation and relied on Mindaro's thorough cable analysis in order to keep civil works to a minimum whilst doing the same with the cable sizes.

Mindaro's design package can be tailored to meet the needs of your project. From concept work that can be used for pricing and tender submission, through to Issued for Construction drawings for ease of installation, our product is designed to increase the simplicity of your project.

Our standard scope of works for a project includes a site plan, string layout, DC schematics and AC single line diagrams. Our calculations for the DC, AC and earth cables will also be provided.

Our scope doesn't have to stop there. If you are after detailed inverter station elevations, combiner box design or a PV racking plan based on a structural certificate, we can take care of those too. The information we include is there to assist your installers when they need guidance on site.

The design package provided by Mindaro undergoes thorough quality assurance to ensure that the proposed designed philosophy is compliant with all Australian standards, as well as any technical specifications that your client may have.

Mindaro will treat your project as our own. We ensure our designs are optimised for cost, ease of installation and installability to provide you with a seamless project delivery.

Our PV design pack simplifies your pricing, procurement and installation.

PV Design

With more and more companies requesting to have storage along with their PV system, you will want to ensure you have a safe and compliant design before you begin the installation. Mindaro's expertise in the BESS department are second to none with extensive experience designing these systems for a wider variety of manufacturers.

With in-house tools for optimisation and compatability checks, Mindaro will be comfortable assisting you with making the difficult decisions on the size, location and type of battery based on the conditions of your project.

With experience in commercial and small utility scale BESS design, our team of engineers are available throughout the entirety of your project to offer advice and assist you every step of the way.

Our design package will guide you for the procurement of materials whilst also being deliberatley concise to ensure your installation team constructs a premium BESS system in compliance with Australian standards, CEC guidelines and any state wiring rules.

With the BESS industry being relatively new, the niche engineering skills and capabilities are hard to come by. Get in touch with Mindaro for your next commercial/small utility scale battery project to access a team of engineers who work comfortably in this space on a daily basis.


The addition of a BESS can be tricky to implement, but thats what we are here for!

BESS Design

The electric vehicle (EV) revolution is upon us and EV charging stations will need to be installed at a rapid rate in order to meet the sudden influx of load as a result.

Mindaro spent the beginning of 2023 developing an EV product that allows customers and EPCs to engage our engineering team for EV charger optimisation based on existing electrical infrastructure and the customers needs.

Our service starts from as simple as engineering a solution for the installation of an EV charging station, and extends to the initial analysis of the type of site (apartment block, shopping centre etc.) and recommendations of type and number of chargers, the connection philosophy and any suggested upgrades to existing infrastructure that is summarised in a report for the end client.

EV chargers are not as simple as plug and play. There is detailed analysis involved based on the current and forecasted energy usage on site as well as the current supply details from the network, such as consumer mains cable size and the capacity of the transformer.

Our passion for sustainability has driven us to incorporate the EV charger package into our standard service offering. With the talented and dedicated team of engineers, Mindaro will ensure that your next project with EV charging stations will be seamless and provide the end client with the product they deserve.

Get in touch today to discuss further how Mindaro can take your charging station dream and help turn it into a reality.
