Off Grid Solutions

Island Energy has partnered with major brands to bring you the complete off grid, fully independent Solar Packages.
We can fully customise your off grid package to suit the application it is intended for. If you are building a new home in a remote area and would like to integrate an off grid package or if you are just sick of paying power bills and would like a system to go off grid, we can do it all!

All Off Grid Packages are custom designed and fully install by our in-house CEC Accredited Electricians.
We don't use sub-contractors, so you can have piece of mind in knowing that we not only back our products, but also our installations with a full 10 year installation guarantee.

Due to the complexity of an Off Grid or Stand Alone Solar System, it is best to either drop in to your local Island Energy branch or give us a call so we can go over your requirements in detail, to make sure we get the right package to suit your application.

Off Grid Batteries

Deep cycle lead-acid batteries are commonly used for off-grid solar & wind power systems. We also offer LG Chem RESU Lithium Battery technology and BYD B-Block Lithium with our packages. Lithium Ion batteries have come a long way with reliability and development in the last couple of years, they are now an affordable, reliable alternative to Lead Acid.

Off-grid Inverter

Off-grid inverters are slightly different to grid tie inverters, they allow you to charge batteries and draw from the solar panels depending on demand.
​They self regulate and will also call upon your generator to start automatically when needed. We only recommend using the highest quality brands, these brands are proven to last the distance and will be around for many years to come.

Solar Panels

The solar panels used in an off-grid or standalone system are identical to that used in a conventional grid tied system.
We use high quality panels, we recommend LG as they now come with a 20 year product warranty, which is in line with our expectations of system life time.
Ask us about Solar Panel technology, and which brand is best going to suit your needs and budget! 

Backup Generator

Unfortunately there are times when the sun doesn't shine, and if this occurs for more than a few days you may need another source of power to keep things moving!
A backup generator can be included to suit your budget and needs.
We offer a full range of petrol or diesel generators which can be paired with your Off Grid or Stand Alone Solar Package.

​An off-grid solar system (off-the-grid, standalone) is an alternative to one that is grid-tied. For homeowners that have access to the grid, off-grid solar systems are usually out of the question. If you have access to the grid you would probably be more interested in checking out our hybrid-systems.
Off-grid solar is for customers who are either looking to become completely independent from the corporate power companies or too far from power transmission that it becomes more economical to stand-alone and go off the grid.
Off-Grid systems use a combination of Solar Panels, Solar Batteries, an off-grid inverter and a backup generator.
These components combined allow you to generate your own electricity 365 days a year without fear of ever being left in the dark.
Our stand alone systems are custom designed to suit the requirements of each individual's needs and budget.
Feel free to contact us for a chat about going off the grid!
