Off Grid Solar

The term “Off Grid” is in reference to the utility grid. The “Utility Grid” is the infrastructure an electric utility company has in place to deliver power. If you need power “Off the Grid”, a solar electric system can definitely generate the power required to meet your needs. Off grid solar power will provide you with green, reliable, clean, and silent power. Once in place a properly designed Off Grid solar system will generate enough power to meet your needs and will do this with little to no maintenance. If you are in a situation where you are located far from the electrical grid, using solar power will offer considerable cost reduction. One must consider the cost of having to pay for utility poles to your “off the grid” site. Having the utility run power to a remote location is very expensive. Another plus is solar is far more visually appealing than unsightly power poles. Your decision to use solar will also have a positive impact on the environment. SunTron Solar offers complete pre-packaged “Off-Grid” kits to meet your needs. We can also design Off Grid systems to meet any specific requirements your project might have. SunTron has engineered custom Off Grid systems for individuals and a variety of industries including, Oil & Gas, Telecommunications, Railroad and Government applications.

How does an Off Grid Solar system work?

An easy way to describe an Off Grid solar system would be a silent generator that’s maintenance free and extremely reliable. Solar excels in off grid applications due to its reliability and maintenance free operation, with no moving parts, the likelihood of something breaking is far less than with fuel operated generators or wind systems.

Solar panels work by converting sun light into DC electrical power. By taking advantage of the limitless power of the sun we can use solar power for virtually any application that requires electricity. Because electricity is needed around the clock and the sun is only available during daylight hours, you will need to store electricity during the day to meet your electricity requirements at night. Fortunately this is easily accomplished through the use of batteries. The reliability of the batteries in your off grid system is extremely important, unreliable energy storage will surely make for an unreliable PV system. One thing you always need to do in any off grid application is buy the best available battery you can get. For this reason, SunTron only stocks the best solar batteries available. We use “Deka” MK Batteries in all of our Off Grid applications.

The next element in the conversion process is the off-grid inverter. The function of an off grid inverter is to convert DC electricity in to AC electricity. The inverter basically takes DC electricity from the battery and converts it to AC electricity. AC electricity is the type of electricity commonly used throughout your home. You are now able to use the AC electricity generated by your Off Grid solar array to run whatever electrical devices you desire.

Common Off Grid Solar applications

As mentioned above, off grid solar is predominately used in situations where electrical power is not available or to costly to obtain. Probably the most common use of off grid solar would be lighting. Solar lighting is easy to install and when LED lights are used the amount of power needed to run the lights is minimal. Solar lighting is often used for parking lots, traffic signals, railroad and security lighting. Other applications include remote cabins, boats, RV’s, outdoor lighting, gate openers, water wells, pumps, outdoor storage, remote business applications, beach houses, signs, and traffic warning lights.
