Allume Energy develops solar power solutions for apartment blocks and multi-dwelling units in Australia.

More than 2M Australians, 15M Americans, and 300M Europeans live in low and medium rise apartment buildings, with the roof space for solar, but no way of accessing it. 

We developed SolShare™ to bridge this gap. SolShare enables solar for apartments by sharing energy from a single rooftop solar system between multiple dwellings within the same building. 

This breaks down the technical and ownership barriers that have historically prevented apartment residents from accessing cheaper and cleaner energy from the sun. 

With an established market in Australia, Allume is now rapidly growing in the UK and the US.

"Apartment dwellers had no efficient way to take advantage of the sun – until now."

The Riotact recently highlighted our SolShare technology as a solution for apartment residents wanting to access clean, affordable, self-generated energy⚡

As our CEO, Cameron Knox, tells the author, Morgan Kenyon; “SolShare is a world-first, Australian-owned, designed and made technology that connects a single rooftop solar system to multiple apartments, breaking down barriers to cheaper, cleaner energy.”

Tim Sturgiss from Huglo Solar, an Allume installer partner in Canberra, adds, “It’s the answer to an issue that has been hounding apartment owners for a long time. We see 40 to 50 percent higher onsite consumption with SolShare than with individual systems.”
