Your Energy Needs, Our Award-Winning SolutionsOff-grid Solar Systems for Remote and Fringe-of-Grid Living
Off-grid solar systems, also known as stand-alone power systems (SAPS), provide electricity to properties not connected to the local electricity network. These systems operate independently, delivering reliable power to a wide range of applications, from small homes to large businesses and entire communities that have traditionally relied on diesel generators.
For those living in remote areas or at the fringe of the grid, off-grid solar systems offer a clean and cost-effective solution. These systems harness renewable energy, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and minimizing environmental impact. Whether you’re powering a new or existing home, a rural station, a business, or a remote community, off-grid stand-alone power systems provide the energy independence you need.

Off-grid Solar Systems: Specialist Custom Designs
Solar Array The solar array should be positioned as close as possible to the standalone equipment enclosure. It must generate sufficient electricity (kWh) to meet your property’s daily energy needs, even on days with poor weather conditions.
Batteries Properly sizing your battery bank is crucial in the design of your system. Understanding your property’s electricity usage patterns, including when and how much power is consumed, will help determine the required battery capacity.
Inverter Charger The inverter/charger must be sized to handle your property’s peak power (kW) demands. For example, if you boil the kettle, run the air conditioner, and do a load of laundry simultaneously, the inverter/charger must be capable of supplying this power all at once.
Generator Thoughtful planning is essential for the installation and operation of generator sets. The generator should be installed close to the main residence and other standalone equipment, with careful consideration given to potential noise levels during operation. Note that different safety regulations apply to permanently installed generators and portable generators under direct supervision.

How do these systems work?
Off grid systems supply electricity to properties that are not connected to, or have chosen to disconnect from, the local electricity network.
Solar panels convert sunlight to direct current (DC) electricity, which is then fed through the solar inverter to create usable alternating current (AC) electricity. AC electricity is then sent to the switchboard, where it is sent to the household appliances that are using electricity at the time, and any surplus electricity is sent to the battery bank to recharge it.
The inverter/charger will stop the solar system from recharging the batteries once they are full. When your solar system is not producing electricity, your battery bank will send power to your household appliances.
If the battery bank state-of-charge level gets too low, the inverter/charger will turn on the backup generator automatically to power the house electrical appliances and recharge the battery bank.
There are two different ways of configuring an off grid system – AC-Coupling and DC-Coupling – and each have unique advantages. The configuration type will have an impact on the life expectancy, efficiency and flexibility of your system.
Just like yourself, they have installed solar Inverters and solar battery storage at their homes to fight against the rising costs and help to decarbonize our society.
Our Process
Experience
Installing off-grid systems isn’t as simple as installing normal solar. Precise load profiling, component selection and integration is required to ensure successful, reliable ongoing operation. Sunoxi has been designing off grid power systems since 2010 and working with solar battery systems since 2012. We are specialists in On & Off grid solar system solutions, both big and small and provide reliable power supply and storage systems.
Expert Design
The design, sizing and programming are integral to an on or off grid power system’s reliability. Poorly designed off-grid solar systems provide frustratingly unreliable power and a costly, short life span due to poor design or size, mismatched equipment, non-compliance and unsafe installation. Our expert technicians ensure these pitfalls are avoided for seamless operation and longevity.
Integrity
We understand the responsibility of providing reliable power and being available to our clients 24/7 to troubleshoot and support. We value honesty and integrity in our staff and always strive to exceed expectations.
We have off grid systems right accross the North of Australia with some also in SA and WA.
Monitoring
Our monitoring platform provides you with a window into your energy consumption patterns. These energy management tools put control in your hands. We also monitor and inspect your systems remotely, allowing us to be aware of any issues with the system.
Maintenance
Solar is great and because its on your roof and you often validate the savings every 90 days, maintenance keeps these savings coming and picks up issues before they become problems ensuring your solar system is continually saving money.
Contact us today for an obligation free assessment of your business’ particular solar system needs.
