#The Challenge: Reduce Power Costs Without Disruption

As a community-focused hospitality venue, North Ryde RSL faced the challenge of rising energy costs while maintaining a seamless experience for its members. Like many licensed clubs, their facilities operated daily with limited room for operational interruptions.

The executive team was committed to improving long-term energy resilience, reducing grid dependence, and making an environmentally responsible decision—without causing disruption or delays.

“We needed to know that the install would be smooth and that our members wouldn’t be affected.”

Joe Kelly, CEO, North Ryde RSL

#The Solution: A Fast, Full-Service Solar Installation for Clubs

Sharp EIT designed and installed a 100kW solar system across the club’s available rooftop space. The process was managed end-to-end—including assessment, approvals, supply, and installation. The team completed the project within 1 week with zero downtime.

The solar solution was carefully engineered for performance and longevity, using high-efficiency panels suitable for large hospitality roofs. Sharp EIT’s background in commercial solar for clubs ensured the process was fast, coordinated, and reliable.

#The Results: A Future-Focused Investment for the Club

While the system has only just been commissioned, North Ryde RSL is now set to:

  • Offset a significant portion of its electricity use

  • Improve long-term operational savings

  • Lead by example in its community and industry

North Ryde RSL is already seeing the value in environmental leadership and will benefit from growing energy independence in the years to come.
