X-Large Off Grid Solar Systems

Our XL Off-Grid Solar Systems are SMArt solar power systems designed to supply a home or business with renewable energy.

Suitable for big (or growing) family homes or offices buildings. Run all the mod-cons you can think of, including large fridges, freezers, computers, pool pump, microwaves or even air-conditioners. It is, however, much more cost effective to cook with gas.

An XL Off-Grid System comes with up to 80 x 370 watt solar panels, a 48 volt Lithium battery bank with IP55 rate enclosures and the pictured wall-mountable control centre featuring SMA Sunny Boy / TriPower solar inverter(s) and Sunny Island battery inverter/charger. We also have 3 Phase systems for industrial applications.

The below example solar systems are available as supply only kits, or can be fully installed by an off-grid accredited installer.

        Customisation

        The above system configurations serve as example only. A XL Off-Grid Solar System can be customised to suit your needs; you can even do it yourself using our online design tools (see above).

        Grundfos Pressure Pump

        The tool lets you adjust:

        • Solar frame to suit roof type / pitch
        • Type of batteries
        • Add accessories

        If in doubt just provide as much detail as possible and we shall get back to you to discuss your options.

        Features

        Our SMArt X-Large Off-Grid Solar Systems can grow with your family or business. You can add a few panels to the quoted solar inverters, but more inverters can be coupled; multiple Sunny Island battery inverters can be paralleled with one another to increase the system's capacity. In fact, SMA based solar systems have been up-scaled to power the entire nation of Tokelau.

        Operation of these stand alone solar power systems is easy. BYD batteries are maintenance free, the control centre's menu & display are intuitive and the charger can be programmed to automatically start a generator when battery levels are low or the consumption is high.

        Installation

        An XL Off-Grid Solar Systems must be installed by a licensed electrician, better even by a Clean Energy Council (CEC) accredited Off-Grid installer. If done by the latter, the solar installation will create STCs - e.g. the 60 Panel Kit would currently create $8330 worth of STCs - reducing the overall outlay.

        CEC accredited installer logo

        If you reside within ~ 5 hours of Nimbin, Rainbow Power Company can install the solar power system for you. The STCs usually cover most, if not all, of the installation cost.

        Should you live outside our installation area, we also provide these solar systems as supply only kits with detailed instructions for the electrician of your choice. The distribution board is pre-wired, the SMA inverters are pre-programmed and tested for a speedy, trouble-free installation. The control centre should be placed indoors (e.g. shed, garage, or dedicated room). Batteries must be close (~1-2m) to the board. Note: the three phase option is not pre-wired.
