This lovely off-grid home had an outdated solar PV system that was no longer keeping up with the electrical loads of the household.
The 20+ year old solar panels and Xantrex inverter/charger were still functioning!
We replaced this system with:
- Schneider Electric XW Pro, 6,800 Watt Inverter/Charger
- 14x 430 Watt Solar Panels
- Midnite Solar Controller
- 24 kWh of Lead Carbon Batteries
- 13 kW Cummins Backup Generator
This new system is the perfect solution for the homeowner who doesn’t want to constantly maintain their electrical system while enjoying their fantastic off-grid home.
The lead-carbon batteries are maintenance free and the generator is automatically controlled to charge up the batteries when the sun hasn’t been out. The system has been sized to keep the system charged up year round.

With the quality components chosen, the electronics in this system will easily last another 20 years. The lead-carbon batteries are built to last 4,100 cycles at a 70% discharge. This means they will easily surpass 15 years of use.
We are proud to call this system complete.
