Independent and reliable energy production

Autonomous solar energy systems provide reliable, battery-buffered power supply in areas with no or unreliable power networks.

These off-grid solar systems can be used to supply power to

• radio and TV repeater stations
• telephone kiosks
• battery charging stations
• street lighting and signals
• water pumping systems
• remote houses, schools, clinics, cultural centres
• refrigeration systems for to store vaccines and medicines
• yachts and caravans
• many other devices

A standard off-grid solar power system consists of:

• a PV module or arrays made up of several modules to generate the power needed;
• a mounting structure to keep the system in place;
• a battery to store the energy for use at times when there is no sunlight;
• a charge controller, which limits the rate at which electric current is added to or drawn from the battery; and
• a stand-alone inverter to convert the DC current of the battery to AC current to power electronic appliances.
