As energy prices continue to rise, more and more of us are opting for self sufficiency when powering our residential homes.

This is where off grid solar power comes in: off grid energy is an environmentally friendly answer to generate remote power and it living off the grid with solar power is a potentially profitable investment that could save you thousands in electricity costs and grid connection fees.
But how does off grid solar power work? And what does it take to install a stand alone solar power system? Aussie Batteries and Solar are experts in the industry, and our professionals have designed thousands of remote area, stand alone & autonomous power systems that have provided the 12V/24V power needs for residential households or businesses in regions where connection to the electricity grid may be expensive or just impossible to achieve.
The process of turning sunlight into energy to power your home via a stand alone solar system is fairly simple. Solar Panels are positioned to achieve maximum amount of sunlight exposure, usually on the roof of your building. The electricity gathered by the solar cells is run through a regulator before being used to power 12v appliances or charge a deep cycle battery bank. Using a solar regulator allows you to convert the electricity for use with 240v devices. Deep Cycle Batteries will provide 24 hour power which can be stored, allowing you to get the most from your stand alone solar system, even during the winter months.
