Cowes Primary School
Cowes Primary School sits in a coastal environment where building conditions, wind exposure and material degradation require careful engineering consideration. Ecologiq performed detailed structural checks to confirm safe mounting locations across varied roof types, including lightweight frames and older structures sensitive to uplift loads.
Electrical assessments addressed legacy switchboards and the need for safe cable routing across a multi-wing layout, ensuring all new electrical works remained compliant with Victorian standards and suitable for long-term operation in a salt-air environment.
Our engineering support enabled the installation contractor to navigate the site’s unique constraints, ensuring a compliant, safe and durable solar outcome for a school serving one of Victoria’s key island communities.
