01Local context
Energy in Brunswick & the inner north.
Inner north
The inner north mixes Victorian terraces, post-war brick and a growing stock of townhouses and apartments. Roofs are often small, shaded or shared, and many streets carry heritage overlays, so system design here tends to be about extracting the most from constrained roof area, and about whether a battery or hot-water upgrade delivers more value than additional panels.
For Brunswick residences still running gas heating, hot water and cooking, electrification is usually best staged: hot water first, then heating, then cooking, with solar and storage sized around the new electric loads. We plan that sequence so you never buy a system that a later upgrade makes the wrong size.
Climate
Inner-north residential properties see classic Melbourne conditions: cool winters with meaningful heating loads and warm summers with afternoon cooling demand.
02Network
Your local distributor.
CitiPower
This part of Melbourne is typically served by CitiPower, whose dense urban network generally offers strong capacity. Connection and export settings can still vary by address and change over time, so we confirm the current arrangements for your property at design stage.
