Micro-grids
Solar, battery and generator together.
Sectors
Solar for farms, wherever the farm is.
Affordable, reliable power for the farmhouse, boreholes and farm equipment, even where extending the grid is too costly or impractical.

Why solar
Power where the grid does not reach.
Solar's cost-effective, sustainable power suits agricultural operations: it can run a borehole pump, lights, cold storage and equipment while cutting diesel use and fuel logistics.
For farms with no practical grid connection, an off-grid system with batteries, designed for the pump's starting current as well as its running load, is often the practical answer.
What matters
What we design around
- Borehole pump running and starting loads
- Farmhouse, workshop and equipment loads
- Daytime pumping versus night-time household use
- Room to expand as the farm grows
- Remote monitoring so you can check the system from your phone
Suggested systems
Systems that fit
Ground-mounted
Land is rarely the problem on a farm.
Battery storage
Power through the night.
Our work
Agricultural projects in the field
Manyana farm, January 2025
A four-hectare off-grid farm powering the farmhouse, a borehole and farm equipment.

A second off-grid farm system, installed after an on-site assessment.
Questions
Good questions, straight answers.
Can solar run a borehole pump?
Yes, when the system is sized for the pump's running load and its starting surge. We check both.
What if there is no grid?
An off-grid system with battery storage can supply the farmhouse and farm equipment. Our Manyana projects are examples.
Can I pay over time?
Ask about FlexPay.
