Shared Solar for Apartments

Allume SolShare — one rooftop, shared fairly

Allume SolShare is the shared solar technology we install for apartment and unit blocks — a single rooftop solar system, split live across every apartment's own meter, without batteries or blockchain.

How SolShare works

Divides, shares, saves

SolShare is smart hardware fitted between the solar inverter and the building's main switchboard. It divides the solar system's output and shares it fairly across every connected apartment's own meter, on the load side — no change to existing meter infrastructure, and no access needed to individual apartments.

  • One SolShare unit connects up to around 15 apartments (larger buildings can install multiple units)
  • A dynamic sharing algorithm balances each apartment's allocation in real time, then evens it out over the month
  • Typical solar allocation per apartment: roughly 1kW–5kW, depending on building size
  • Works with any brand of solar panel and inverter — no batteries or blockchain required
  • All installation work happens in common areas (roof, switchboard room) — no apartment access needed
  • 10-year manufacturer's warranty on the SolShare unit
NSW Solar for Apartments

Support for eligible strata buildings

The NSW Government runs a solar for apartments grant program to help eligible strata buildings cover part of the cost of a shared solar system like SolShare. Eligibility depends on the building type, strata registration and insurance status, and whether solar has been installed there before — our team can talk you through current eligibility and manage the strata approval process alongside your owners corporation. Exact grant amounts and current program status are best confirmed directly with us or the NSW Government at the time of your enquiry, as terms change.

Why Allume SolShare

The global leader in shared solar

☀️

Divides

SolShare splits the energy from a single rooftop solar system — smart hardware that works with any panel, inverter or battery brand.

🤝

Shares

A dynamic sharing algorithm allocates energy fairly across every connected apartment and common area, balancing usage over the month.

💡

Saves

Households use more of the solar generated on their own roof instead of it being exported to the grid for a low feed-in rate.

SolShare is Australian-designed technology, developed by Allume Energy and installed across strata and apartment buildings nationally. Pricing is deliberately left off this page — we quote every job in-house, on site.
