A grid-connect system stays linked to the mains, exporting excess power and drawing from the grid when needed. An off grid system is fully independent, storing all the power it generates in batteries with no grid connection at all.

Off grid systems suit properties with no grid access, or where connecting to the grid is expensive or impractical, such as rural blocks, sheds, and new builds on acreage. We can assess your site and usage to confirm it's the right fit.

This depends on your daily energy use, the appliances you're running, and how much backup you want during extended low-sun periods. We size every off grid system around your actual usage, not a standard package.

Enough to cover your household through a run of cloudy days without needing a backup generator. We'll work through your usage patterns with you to size the battery bank correctly.

Some off grid properties keep a generator as a backup for extended low-sun periods, particularly through winter. We can advise whether this makes sense for your setup or whether your battery capacity covers it.

Off grid systems typically cost more upfront than grid-connect systems, since they need to generate and store all the power your property uses. We'll give you an accurate quote based on your property and energy needs.

Off grid systems need slightly more attention than grid-connect systems, given batteries and backup components are doing more of the work. We offer maintenance checks to keep everything running at peak performance.
