Off Grid Solar
At 1Energy hybrid solutions are our specialty.
We combine our own experience, software design tools and
live data from many installed sites to perfect our designs.

GRID-SUPPLY ELECTRICITY
No Access
Many remote sites, such as game lodges, island lodges, mines and farms have no access to grid-supply electricity. The usual source of electricity in these situations is diesel generators.

Investment
An investment in solar power pays for itself quickly, and a correctly-designed solar solution from 1Energy will substantially reduce your operating costs.
Solar power provides a very strong return on investment, dramatically reducing diesel consumption and overall operating costs. We engineer our solar “hybrid” solutions to combine solar power and battery storage, working with a generator to provide constant power.
Solar power pays for itself quickly
Fuel is often the biggest single operating cost
THE BIGGEST EXPENSE
Diesel Generators
Running diesel generators around the clock to provide electricity is expensive, and often complicated by the logistics of bringing diesel to site. Fuel is often the biggest single operating cost for sites where there is no access to grid power.
In many sites, the generator is required for only a few hours a day, also helping to improve the environmental noise factor. Our systems ensure that the generator always operates in the most fuel-efficient power range.
No Two Hybrid Solutions Are Alike
No two hybrid solutions are alike, and there are many ways to get them wrong. There is a fine balance to be drawn between the relative sizing of the component parts, the configuration of the system behavior, and the trade-off between capital cost and operating expenses.
Solutions
Grid-Tied Solar
Increasing electricity costs combined with the reducing costs of solar power provide a strong case for adding solar power. By using solar power to offset your electricity consumption during the day, significant savings can be achieved.
