Services / Off-Grid

Total independence from the grid.

For lodges, eco-camps, farms, and homes beyond the last pole — complete solar and battery systems engineered to run a property on sunlight alone, year-round.

01The engineering

Off-grid is a different discipline.

A grid-tie system that underperforms costs you money. An off-grid system that underperforms leaves you in the dark — so the margins, the modelling, and the components all change.

Generation, oversized

Off-grid arrays are sized for your worst week of weather, not your best — including cloudy-season margins.

Storage that lasts the night

LiFePO₄ banks from BYD sized for night loads, with autonomy margins so you never wake up flat.

Load management

Smart distribution and priority circuits so heavy loads — pumps, kitchens, laundry — run when the sun pays for them.

Remote monitoring

Victron GX telemetry means we see your system's health from Kilifi — and usually fix issues before you call.

02The plant room

Victron and BYD, configured for autonomy.

Our off-grid builds run on Victron inverter/chargers and MPPT controllers paired with BYD lithium banks — equipment with a decade of proven service in salt air and heat. Every plant room is laid out for serviceability: labelled, ventilated, and monitored remotely.

03Process

Designed around your worst week, not your best.

01

Load Profile

We list every appliance, pump, and light on the property and model your daily and seasonal consumption hour by hour.

02

Autonomy Design

Array, battery bank, and inverter are sized with explicit autonomy targets — typically 1-2 days of reserve without sun.

03

Installation

Our team handles the full build: mounting, plant room, distribution, earthing, and backup generator integration if specified.

04

Commissioning & Telemetry

We stress-test the system at full load, configure remote monitoring, and hand over with clear operating guidance.

04Common questions

Asked and answered.
