Off-Grid Solar
Powering Remote Australia
Off-grid solar power systems are a sustainable and an increasingly popular way to generate electricity in areas that are not connected to the traditional electrical grid.
These systems are also known as stand-alone solar systems or remote solar energy systems.
They offer a reliable source of clean and renewable energy, particularly in remote or rural locations where access to the grid is impractical or expensive.
Our Off Grid Solar Systems
Eco Tech have over 20 years combined experience in solar design, install and engineering. We use our proven off grid products to provide effective technology specific to your area that works.
Choosing the best quality off-grid solar products is essential. At Eco Tech we know our off-grid systems inside and out. Having your system designed and installed by our team gives you peace of mind for your investment in stand-alone solar power.
As Clean Energy Council Licensed Off Grid solar Installers, working with us means that you are able to take advantage of the solar battery system rebates that are available.
We have extensive knowledge working with leading brands of solar chargers and battery types such as Lithium-ion batteries and Fronius, Selectronic inverter/chargers, BYD Batteries, Power Plus Batteries.
Off Grid Solar Inverters & Chargers
Solar inverters are devices that convert direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC).
They are intended for remote areas where no main electricity source exists but require an installation site nearby. It doesn't have any incoming mains cables to it, as it is completely off-grid.
Off-Grid Inverters are used for all needs Australia wide. They are easy to install and easy to maintain.
Our battery inverter systems run at a high efficiency for uninterrupted power supply for places that frequent Blackouts and offer protection from power surges and short circuits.
A single Solar unit can normally provide power for several appliances at once, which creates the possibility to live completely off-grid. It will be necessary to purchase a large enough battery system to live comfortably without worrying about power shortage.
Battery Inverters
High quality off-grid battery inverters produce a pure sine wave AC output, which is the same type of smooth and consistent AC power supplied by the traditional electrical grid.
This ensures compatibility with a wide range of appliances, including sensitive electronic devices.
Reversible current (DC to AC) batteries for the power supply of
modern remote home systems, provide pure sinewave AC power at any load in any condition.
How many solar panels do I need to run off-grid?
According to average solar generation and peak sun hours the average home will need about 24 400 watt panels of solar electricity.
These numbers can however vary depending upon the intensity of solar radiation and the amount of power used.
System types: AC or DC-coupled
The system is powered by alternating AC and direct DC power sources.
AC-coupled sources are typically solar inverters and backup generators.
DC-coupled sources include wind turbines, MPPT solar charge controllers or microhydro technology.
The choice between AC and DC is usually dependent upon the system's dimensions.
Almost every small system is DC-coupled and employs efficient MPPT solar charging controllers.
Larger installations may have AC/DC coupling, depending on the types of inverters or charging devices used and their compatibility with various solar inverters and charge controls (DC).
