Off-Grid Power Systems

Our revolutionary off-grid power systems have been designed for complete self-sufficiency, maximum efficiency, and energy savings with minimal maintenance.

We’re able to provide power to any location, whether commercial or residential, from small self-contained units right through to large commercial properties and everything in between.

We develop systems to suit individual requirements, no matter whether you’re looking to become completely self-sufficient off-grid or the property has no mains electricity connection.

Our systems can be found all over the UK and across Europe, powering homes, estates, holiday lets and caravan parks, cabins, farms, commercial properties and much more.

Completely Bespoke Off-Grid Energy

We have over 50 years of combined experience in offering efficient off-grid electricity.

This standing in the industry means that we can put together completely bespoke off-grid energy systems, without relying on various components from different ‘off-the-shelf systems’.

We have a vastly experienced programming and circuit board team in our factory in Lincolnshire, which means we’re able to put together a highly attuned system that works together in complete harmony.

We understand that every situation is different, so if you’d like a quote for a fully off-grid system, a hybrid system or other renewable elements, we’re happy to arrange a site visit to offer our tailored recommendations.

You can see examples of vast array of projects in our case studies.

Who is Off-Grid Electricity Suitable For?

Our customers seek off-grid power for many reasons, but an off-grid system will typically be suitable for those who:

  • Live in an area where it is too expensive or impractical to install a mains grid connection.
  • Require uninterrupted power to a property to ensure protection from power cuts and brown outs.
  • Wish to reduce ever-increasing energy bills and maximise the use of rapidly evolving renewable energy technologies.
  • Need flexible and adaptable power options to suit changing requirements.
  • Want to make use of more eco-friendly energy and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.

What is Included in our Off-Grid Systems?

Although all of our systems are built to suit your individual circumstances, each system must feature several components to ensure complete efficiency.

Our systems include a modern, state-of-the-art generator to ensure optimal efficiency, a PS control system, which includes an inverter and industrial battery bank and a range of other tailored components to ensure the whole system can work seamlessly.

All of the PS controllers in our systems are custom-built and act as the brains ensuring that the power is generated in the most efficient and optimal way. This is to ensure that the system is minimising the run time of the generator, by utilising the battery bank as the main source of power.

The generator only runs for short periods to supply the batteries with power, and the PS system will learn what power requirements each site has and when to ensure the generator is only running during sociable hours.

Additional power generation sources, such as solar, wind and hydro are also available, which means the batteries can be powered by renewable energy sources allowing the generator to act only as a backup power source where necessary.

Due to the energy-saving costs of our off-grid systems, they not only pay for themselves in the long term but also pay a return on your financial investment.

Why Choose Powerguard for Your Off-Grid Requirements?

For over five decades, we’ve established ourselves as experts in off-grid energy solutions, known for our reliability and technical expertise. Each off-grid system we design is fully customised, finely tuned, and built in our facility, ensuring clean, reliable energy for every property we serve.

In addition to offering complete installation services for both off-grid and renewable energy packages, we are frequently called upon to troubleshoot issues and replace off-the-shelf systems, which often need more seamless integration than our bespoke systems provide. This extensive experience also makes us highly skilled in off-grid system maintenance and repair.

An off-grid power system gives you the means to connect a power supply to any property.

This is crucial for remote properties that may not have the luxury of being connected to the grid, or for those that simply cannot afford the considerable fees associated with grid connection.

Our off-grid systems give you all the benefits of being connected to the grid, with all the same functions, but without the costs and unreliability that’s often associated with mains electricity.

Our systems are designed to function with little maintenance and are fully programmed and automated to offer stable and reliable power 24/7.

Due to the rising cost of living and exorbitant fuel costs, even those already connected to the grid are now opting to enjoy the security and benefits of a hybrid-grid system for their homes and businesses too.

The cost of one of our off-grid solar power systems can vary widely depending on several factors, such as the size of the system, your energy needs, the type of equipment, installation costs, and geographical location.

All of our systems are made bespoke to suit each individual circumstance, so we’re happy to undertake site visits to give us a better understanding of your needs and the location itself to help us tailor each quote.

It can be quite daunting if you’re not familiar with the elements of an off-grid system, which is why we keep things simple. We tailor each system to your needs and we’ll do all the calculations too.

All you need to do is answer some simple questions around what sort of power requirements you have, so we can build up a clear picture of the site and what power you’ll need, whilst also factoring in any future needs too.

We can then suggest the system that will be right for your power needs, so we can put together an accurate quote.

In some locations, this just isn’t possible. In others, the cost simply isn’t feasible for most, with some quoted upwards of £250,000 depending on the work that would be required.

Additionally, once you’re connected to the grid, you’ll be charged daily standing charges and price per kWh, which as we know has been rising considerably in the past few years.

Whilst the system will work perfectly to provide power without any source of renewable energy, it is a fantastic addition.

Solar in particular is a reliable source of free energy and the system is designed to maximise the solar yield, reducing your energy costs further.

We offer a full supply and installation of solar panels and chargers.

The space you need will all depend on the amount of power you need from the system. The bigger the requirement, the larger the component elements will be.

These can range from as small as 3 x 3 metres, up to 20 x 10 ft, depending on the power requirements and the site itself.

You can always contact us to find out more and we’ll be happy to help.

We can provide quotes for a full installation service for both the off-grid system and any renewable extras, such as solar panels.

Alternatively, you can install the system yourself, or with the help of an electrician. In this case, we offer full remote assistance free of charge to ensure the installation goes to plan.

We can arrange site visits to your location to assess the project in person. In some cases, we’d recommend this to ensure we have a full understanding of more complex projects.
