How does stand alone solar system work?

Advancements in wind and solar power system over the years has seen major improvements to off grid technology – it’s now cheaper and more efficient than ever; so just because you’re living in a remote location, doesn’t mean you need to sacrifice creature comforts!

Here’s how a remote power generation system works.

Sun shines on the solar panel or wind turns wind turbine blades, generating DC electricity
The DC electricity is fed into a regulator which controls the amount of charge
Deep cycle batteries are charged
12 volt appliances can be run directly off the batteries or the current routed through an  inverter which converts it to 240V 50Hz AC electricity; suitable for running standard home appliances..

Selecting a remote power system

Getting the right system for your needs is imperative and much will depend on where you live – try our system builder tool for a good idea of the components you’ll need and the cost. For tailored, no-obligation advice email or call our friendly team on 1300 727 151!

While a stand alone power system (SAPS) can be quite an investment, generous government renewable energy rebates for people living in remote areas mean you can also save thousands on an off grid wind or solar power set-up for a limited time! Our team can inform you of the latest rebates and subsidies available.

Installing off grid solar or wind power

You can install your remote power system yourself or engage the services of one of our accredited off grid installers.

If you wish to install your own system, in the case of solar power, the optimum for solar panels is that the glass face of the modules is positioned at 90 degrees to the sun for most of the day. In Sydney this angle would be approximately 30-40 degrees to the horizontal. In order to determine the optimum angle for your location; try our system builder.
