What is an off-grid energy system?

What is an off grid system? An off-grid energy system is akin to having your own power source right at home. To achieve this, it relies mainly on solar panels to capture energy from the sun. This collected energy is then stored in a specialised battery, ensuring it’s readily available when you need it, such as during nighttime or on cloudy days.

How do you design an off-grid power system?

The design of a off-grid power requires a number of steps. A basic design method follows ... Determination of the system load (energy usage). Determination of the battery storage required. Determination of the energy input required. Selection of the remainder of system components. Important!

What is an off-grid solar system?

An off-grid solar system is one that makes you entirely independent of the power grid. You are 100% responsible for your power needs and cannot harness extra electricity from the utility company. Ready to add an off-grid solar system to your home? Speak to one of our off-grid solar experts today!

How do I design a reliable off grid system?

Let’s explore the essential steps to design a robust and reliable off grid system. Get in touch for our free electrical design service. Consider Your Energy Needs. Step one is figuring out what appliances you want to run to calculate your daily and weekly energy usage. To do this we need average power usage for various household appliances.

What is an off-grid usage system?

An off-grid usage system is designed with peak consumption in mind. It focuses on how many electrical loads are run simultaneously. By staggering your usage of major appliances, you can reduce the peak demand on your system.

How do I calculate my off-grid system size?

The primary factor determining your off-grid system size is your Daily Energy Consumption, measured in Watt-hours (Wh) or kilowatt-hours (kWh). 1 kWh = 1,000 Wh. The higher your daily energy usage, the more solar panels and batteries you’ll require.
