Reliable Power Beyond the Grid’s Reach. Energy for Your Farm to Thrive.

Illustration for off-grid & agriculture

Bring dependable energy to your farm, home or remote operation, even where grid power is unavailable or unreliable. Our off-grid solar and battery solutions support irrigation, water pumping, refrigeration, dairy equipment and everyday essentials. Each system is designed around your location, seasonal demands and operating needs, helping reduce dependence on diesel and keep essential activities running.

What you get

  • Designed for Your Site: A solar and storage solution tailored to your location, equipment, seasonal demands and daily energy needs.
  • Power for Productive Work: Support irrigation, water pumping, refrigeration, dairy equipment and other farm or remote-site operations.
  • Energy Beyond Daylight: Battery storage sized to support agreed loads at night and during periods of low solar generation.
  • Reduced Diesel Dependence: Use solar energy to reduce generator runtime, fuel consumption and operating costs.
  • Generator Integration: Combine solar, batteries and a compatible generator to support extended cloudy periods or high demand.
  • Smart Monitoring: Track generation, consumption and battery status, with remote access where connectivity is available.
  • Professional Installation & Support: Suitable equipment, proper electrical protection and ongoing maintenance for dependable operation.

A typical system

A Typical Off-Grid & Agriculture System Solar Panels: Generate electricity to run equipment during daylight hours and charge batteries for later use. Inverters & Controls: Manage power delivery to single-phase or three-phase equipment, matched to operating loads and motor starting requirements. AC-Coupled Solar: Combine compatible grid-tied solar inverters with battery inverters to power equipment and store surplus energy. With suitable controls and sizing, the battery inverter maintains a local grid that allows solar generation to continue off-grid. Battery Storage: Supplies agreed loads at night and during periods of low solar generation, sized around your required operating hours. Solar Pumping: Where suitable, a dedicated solar pump controller runs water pumps directly from solar, with water tanks storing pumped water for later use. Generator Backup: A compatible generator supports prolonged cloudy periods or additional demand, with automatic starting where configured. Protection & Monitoring: Electrical protection, earthing and monitoring help safeguard equipment and track system performance. Each system is tailored to your site, seasonal energy needs and equipment, from irrigation and dairy operations to remote homes, lodges and field stations.
