Off-grid Solar Power
Australian residents now have the opportunity to save thousands of dollars each year by installing an off-grid solar

Why pay higher energy prices when you can​ Produce Unlimited Electricity

Thanks to the latest advancement in solar battery technology and the new generation solar inverters and chargers, any Australian can generate their own electricity regardless of their location.

Off-grid and Hybrid solar power systems are designed to incorporate solar storage batteries into grid-connected solar systems are now becoming commonplace in both residential and commercial solar installations.

Whether installing a solar storage battery for backup during blackouts or one that uses electricity from the main grid as a backup and powers your home every day and night with energy from the sun, more and more Aussies are becoming their own power stations.

Did you know that off-grid solar energy can be more reliable, affordable and convenient than being connected to your main grid?

What Is Off-grid Solar

The market price of an off-grid solar system (18kWh/day) on the Australian market ranges from $25,000 to $45,000.

The overall cost of an off-grid solar system is depended on the size and cost of the battery storage needed to power your home in winter or on days when solar generation is at its minimal.

How Off-grid Solar Power Works

An off-grid solar system, also referred to as a stand-alone solar system provides grid-like electricity in places where grid energy is unavailable, unreliable and too expensive for the consumers.

Off-grid solar systems feature ground- or roof-mounted solar panels, an integrated backup diesel generator, a battery bank for storing energy and a solar inverter and or charger to be used as an interface for the various inputs.

Off-grid solar system sizes are infinitely variable and there are some systems that can power a fridge and TV, supply a remote community or even an entire island with unlimited electricity.

We also design and install cutting-edge energy monitoring solutions, home storage batteries, EV chargers, and security and CCTV systems.

Generally, a diesel generator has to be integrated in large-scale system installation to act as a backup particularly during bad weather seasons or provide support during times of abnormal energy demands.

When possible, other renewables like hydro and wind can be integrated to assist.

Unlike the older off-grid solar systems, the latest off-grid technology is fully automated and easy to maintain. It can also be controlled and monitored online.

The new systems also generate quality power compared to electricity produced by the average grid, and this even extends the lifespan of your equipment and appliances.

Choose a Specialist For Your Off-Grid Solar Installation

As off-grid solar and battery systems continue to gain more traction across the country, consumers need to know that designing an effective off-grid solar system requires a high-level of expertise and great understanding of the user’s unique energy needs.

Poor design and installation of solar systems can result in serious problems for the end-user. Many off-grid solar systems on the market have been designed with ‘kits’ or mere off-the-shelf components without true formulas and values required to design a highly-performing system.

Unfortunately, in most cases these mistakes are detected when the system has already been installed. Hence, it’s important for consumers to understand how off-grid systems work and this can help minimise instances of wrong installations.

Every residential or commercial solar project is distinct and hence your system must be customised to suit your needs. Hence, you must choose the right solar and electrical professional from the start—Hielscher Electrical it is!
