Renewable Energy

Our renewable energy systems, whilst incorporating cutting edge technologies and constructed to the latest Australian Standards, are basically simple in concept. For off-grid remote systems, the solar and/or wind generation source is utilised for the charging of a battery bank. The stored DC power is then converted into very high quality 240v or 415 volt AC electricity. A diesel generator is traditionally utilised to provide supplementary battery charging and, when required, load support.

By applying effective energy efficiency measures at the same time, enormous savings of fossil fuel use and reductions in greenhouse gas emissions of many tonnes are achievable; the savings effected result in payback times of only a few years.

Remote area power systems are utilised for many purposes. Some examples include;

Telemetry systems
Data logging
Communications
Water pumping
Homestead power
Camp power
Large facility
Remote community power

Grid Connected

Renewable sources may be connected directly to the existing electricity network. The power generated by the solar panels or wind turbines travels via an inverter, with or without battery back up, into the network.

An immediate reduction in electricity consumed and greenhouse gases produced is evident. If the installation is combined with energy efficiency measures, you may even be eligible to be paid by the network authority.

Grid connection is suitable for remote isolated community grids as well as city based power networks. Please utilise our grid calculator to assist us to provide accurate guidance.
