Off Grid Solar Power Systems

Off-Grid Solar Systems Australia — Reliable Power Without the Grid
Agile Energy delivers fully integrated off-grid solutions for rural homes, agriculture, remote businesses, and critical infrastructure, combining intelligent design, high-performance storage, and proven field experience to ensure uninterrupted power.


What Is an Off-Grid Solar System?
An off-grid solar system generates, stores, and manages electricity without any connection to the utility grid. Solar panels produce energy during the day, while batteries store excess power for night-time use or low-sun periods. Smart inverters and energy management systems maintain stable, continuous supply.
Unlike hybrid systems, off-grid solutions operate independently — making them ideal for properties where grid access is unavailable, unreliable, or cost-prohibitive.
Typical applications include:
- Remote residential properties
- Agricultural and pastoral operations
- Mining and tourism sites
- Regional commercial facilities
The off-grid energy system is perfect for regions where grid access is unavailable or unreliable.
How Off-Grid Systems Are Designed
Off-grid solar is engineered for reliability first — not simply lowest upfront cost. System sizing is based on energy demand, location conditions, and required autonomy during low-generation periods.
Core components include:
Solar Panels
Durable, high-efficiency modules designed to withstand Australian heat, dust, and harsh environmental conditions.
Battery Storage
Lithium energy storage provides consistent power supply, storing daytime generation for night-time use and ensuring resilience during extended low-sun periods.
Inverters & Energy Management
Smart inverters convert and regulate power while load-management systems optimise performance. Optional backup generators can be integrated for additional security.
Every system is engineered through detailed load analysis to ensure long-term reliability and scalability.
Components of an Off-Grid Solar System
Off-Grid Solar Panels: Best Fit for Remote Power
The off-grid solar panels are built tough so they will last long in the extreme conditions experienced across Australia. The off-grid solar panels will withstand extreme heat levels, dust, and long periods of exposure to UV rays.
Agile Energy selects the correct panel configuration according to the location’s orientation and amount of space available, and the target amount of energy to be generated to provide reliable energy for homes located in remote locations.
Off-Grid Battery System: Store Power Effectively
An off-grid battery system provides a means to store surplus energy from solar PV generation that can be used to have power when there is little or no solar energy. This ensures the reliability of the overall system. Plus, the size of the batteries must be matched to provide a balance between total autonomy, usable ampacity (or depth-of-discharge), and cost of the system's overall lifecycle while maintaining a consistent supply of off-grid solar power.
Agile Energy deploys a range of lithium-based energy storage solutions that provide superior efficiencies, with a longer operational life than other types of energy storage. They also offer proven alternatives where necessary.
Inverters, Controllers & Backup Generators
Modern off grid systems depend on smart inverters that convert stored energy into usable AC power and manage load preference. Charge controllers optimise solar input and maintain the health of batteries.
A complete off-grid solar installation can include optional backup generators for lengthy periods of low-generation so that power may be continuously supplied to the user.
Professional Off-Grid Solar Installation by Agile Energy
The installation of off grid solar systems requires expert technicians to ensure the system will perform properly for an extended period while maintaining safety standards and meeting regulatory requirements. The delivery process at Agile Energy starts with site assessment and proceeds through load analysis and system engineering until it reaches the final commissioning stage.
Our technicians ensure that all installations comply with Australian electrical standards while designing systems that match environmental conditions and usage requirements and can expand in the future. The engineering-first approach enables all off-grid solar systems in Australia to deliver dependable performance throughout their operational lifespan.

Benefits of Going Off-Grid with Agile Energy
No electricity bills
There will be no costs associated with connecting to the electricity grid, such as connection fees or ongoing usage charges.
No blackouts or grid dependency
You’ll never again be dependent on an electricity grid that may fail, have blackouts, or be limited due to the infrastructure.
Reliable power in bush & remote areas
Recreated to consistently supply electric power within rural, agricultural, and isolated locations of Australia.
Sustainable, eco-friendly living
Using clean, renewable energy to produce electricity will result in lower carbon emissions.
Long-term protection from rising energy prices
By using an independent REFAST system (Renewable Energy Future Architecture System), you’ll gain peace of mind around a secure energy supply and predictable energy pricing.
Agile Energy also provides industrial solar panel installation services for larger facilities as part of their energy infrastructure development projects.
Off Grid vs Hybrid Solar Systems – What’s the Difference?
Criteria

100% solar generation with battery storage
Solar power with battery and grid support
Energy dependence
Fully independent from the grid
Partially dependent on the grid
Battery role
Primary source of night-time and backup power
Backup power with grid as support
System sizing

Which Option Is Right for You?
Off-grid systems suit properties without grid access or unreliable supply. On the other hand, hybrid systems work best in locations that need emergency electricity and want to decrease their power costs. The right option needs to be selected based on three factors, which include the location, energy requirements, and grid power availability.
