Dual-purpose design providing energy generation and vehicle cover
Here’s a small but interesting project, an absolutely off-grid solar setup designed to charge a golf cart or electric car. It’s a freestanding system with 3kW of solar panels, a 6kW Senergy inverter, and a 16kWh battery bank. Charging is done simply through 15A and 10A power points.
This property isn’t far from Ballarat, and the house itself has a separate off-grid solar system. Pretty cool setup!
Simon needed a reliable way to charge a plug in hybrid from an existing off grid system. The solution was not just capacity, it was flexibility. A modern solar and battery setup was designed to handle current demand while allowing clean upgrades later. Installation happened within a week and performed immediately without issues. As Simon upgraded to a fully electric vehicle, two further system expansions were added without friction. The result is a stable, scalable off grid energy system that adapts as lifestyle and load requirements increase.
