Regency Apartments is a luxury apartment building complex composed of two high rise towers. The complex is located in the major business and residential district of Chatswood, NSW.

PROJECT CHALLENGES

The height of the two towers where the solar panels were mounted made this a very complex project. The standard racking system is made for buildings that are less than 20m in height. Both of Regency’s two towers exceeded that height limit – the higher tower is 83m and the lower tower is 57m. The apartments are also situated in a high-traffic residential area.

OUR SOLUTION

Despite the challenges, The Green Guys Group successfully installed the Solar Power System on a mounting system specifically designed for each building. The height of the two towers combined with the sloping roof posed safety challenges that required detailed risk and safety management. Combined with the LED lighting upgrade, Regency Apartments are saving over $15,000 in energy costs per year.
