Remote Microgrid Deployment
A hybrid solar-plus-storage microgrid scenario for islands, remote communities, and off-grid operations — reliable power with low fuel run-hours.
01Project Background
Remote Microgrid
Remote sites rely on diesel or weak grids, driving high fuel cost and downtime. This scenario shows how a hybrid microgrid is specified around storage.
This is a generic engineering deployment scenario used to illustrate system design — it is not a specific customer installation.
02Customer Challenge
Site challenge
A typical remote microgrid site faces:
- Diesel fuel and delivery to remote sites is expensive.
- Generators require frequent maintenance and cause downtime.
- Weak or intermittent grids threaten critical uptime.
- Solar alone cannot cover night-time or low-sun periods.
03Solution Overview
Solution approach
Solar and a right-sized generator charge the battery bank through a hybrid PCS; the bank powers loads through the night so the generator runs only to top up.
04System Architecture
Typical Remote Microgrid topology
A hybrid PCS blends solar, generator, and battery on one DC bus. Solar is prioritised; the generator starts only to top up the bank, so the battery carries loads through the night.
Powering a remote community?
Share the community load, solar, and generator setup — we design a microgrid around it.

09FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the system run fully off-grid?
Yes. With adequate solar and/or generator input, storage can power critical loads continuously off-grid.
How much diesel can we save?
Savings depend on load, solar availability, and current generator use; we estimate based on your site data on request.
Is it suitable for remote communities?
Yes. Modular battery banks are well suited to island and village mini-grids.
