Off-grid solar systems are designed for locations where grid connection is unavailable, impractical or not required. Solunova assesses the site, energy use, operating hours and essential loads to develop a suitable system using solar PV, battery storage and, where required, a backup source.
Off-grid projects in farms, remote facilities and temporary sites require careful assessment of solar resources, load profile, equipment location, access and future operating needs. System sizing should account for seasonal conditions, battery autonomy, backup requirements and practical maintenance access.
Off-grid solar systems can support a range of applications where reliable power is needed away from the utility grid:
An off-grid system is designed around the actual load profile and the required operating hours. It may include solar panels, an inverter, battery storage, protection equipment and, where appropriate, a backup generator.
Load assessment: Identify essential and non-essential loads, daily energy use and peak demand.
Battery autonomy: Define the required hours or days of operation when solar production is limited.
Equipment selection: Select compatible PV, inverter, battery and protection equipment for the site conditions.
Backup planning: Confirm whether a generator or another backup source is required for extended low-solar periods.
Off-grid solar systems are used in farms, remote homes, site offices, monitoring locations and other facilities where a grid connection is unavailable, impractical or not required.
Most off-grid solar systems include battery storage so electricity is available when solar production is low or unavailable. The battery size depends on the load profile and required autonomy.
They can be suitable when the system is designed around the site’s actual loads, operating hours, water-pumping requirements and access conditions. A site assessment is required before selecting system capacity and equipment.
