Hybrid Solar Systems

Power that doesn't stop when the grid does​

Hybrid solar and battery systems for homes and farms where the grid arrives, but doesn’t always stay.

All the power you need. Always.

What a hybrid system gives you, day to day.

Stay connected to the grid, stay in control of your own power, and leave room to add more later.

Independent & connected

Stay connected without being dependent. Use your own power at peak times and never lose power when the grid goes down.

Be in control

Where there’s permanent internet at the property, you can see what your system is generating, storing and using from your phone — and so can we.

Expand your system

Add panels or storage later without starting again. We design the cabinet and the wiring with the room already in it.

Thirty-five years of knowing what fails out here.

35 years of hard-won knowledge, built into every system we design. Every system we can monitor, we watch — and if something goes wrong, you’ll often hear from us before you notice it.
Battery Systems

  • The backup you need

When the grid goes down, your house doesn't.

Out here the power goes off. Storms, fire, a car into a pole three valleys away. A hybrid system with battery storage carries the house through it and changes over on its own — nothing to switch, nothing to start. You find out there was an outage when someone else mentions it. The changeover happens on its own. You don’t switch anything, you don’t start anything, and you don’t sit in the dark working out what to do. Whether we back up your essential circuits or the whole house is a design decision we make with you — and we’ll tell you exactly which circuits stay live before you sign anything.
  • Monitor your power

What your power costs, & who gets to decide it.

Every kilowatt-hour you generate and store is one you don’t buy. Your connection stays, so the grid covers the shortfall — and the shortfall is the thing we design down. We size the battery to your load, and we angle the panels to produce power at the hours you actually use it, not at the hour that looks best on paper.

  • Empower your home

Why we don't tell everyone to go off-grid.

If the grid already reaches your place, cutting it off is rarely the cheaper answer. You’d be paying for generation and storage to cover the worst week of the year, when the line outside can cover it for you. We’ll tell you which one your site actually needs before we design anything.

A hybrid system backs up your essential circuits — lights, fridge, water, communications, the things that matter when the street goes dark. Not the whole house: carrying every circuit through an outage would mean paying for storage you’d almost never use. We work out which circuits stay live with you, and you’ll know exactly what they are before you sign.

  • The Rebate

The battery rebate gets smaller as the battery gets bigger.

Most hybrid batteries land between 14 and 28 kWh. That’s the band where the federal discount drops to 60% of the full rate, and it drops again above 28. It’s in the legislation, not the fine print of your quote. We’d rather you heard it from us.
