We’ve helped remote communities and communities in need with generating their own electricity and being completely independent from the grid. Some examples are ground mount solar systems and others are built into temporary or permanent shipping containers. These low cost solutions are an excellent way to get electricity into the hands of those in need. Whether you need to power a container style office or drop a container into a farming or industrial location our solutions are right for you.
If you’ve been thinking about disconnecting from the grid please get in touch with us and a friendly expert will help you with your planning. Powering your farm, shed or business with an off-grid system is becoming more and more popular because of rising electricity prices, access to mains power and the affordability of a 20+ year standalone energy system. We install off-grid systems on farms and sheds from as little as 8kW right up to 100kW+ systems for commercial businesses!
Every week we install off-grid and hybrid systems on homes and sheds. Our customers tell us that the main reasons that they want to go off the grid is to cut ties with the big electricity companies, some might not have access to the grid due to their remote location, and to stop renting electricity from the grid. We help them put the power back in their hands.
An off-grid solar system (off-the-grid, standalone) is an alternative to one that is grid-tied. For homeowners that have access to the grid, off-grid solar systems are usually out of the question. If you have access to the grid you would probably be more interested in checking out our hybrid-systems.
Off-grid solar is for customers who are either looking to become completely independent from the corporate power companies or too far from power transmission that it becomes more economical to stand-alone and go off the grid.
Off Grid Solar systems use a combination of Solar Panels, Solar Batteries, an off grid inverter and a backup generator. These components combined allow you to generate your own electricity 365 days a year without fear of ever being left in the dark.
Our stand alone systems are custom designed to suit the requirements of each individual's needs and budget.
