Boolcoomatta Station, Off Grid Solar Power System.
If you drive an hour west of Broken Hill, past the backdrop of Mad Max II, feral goats and frantic emus, you'll reach a dirt track that leads to a former sheep station, now known as Boolcoomatta Station Reserve.
Boolcoomatta’s 63,000 hectares contain vegetation under-represented in Australia’s national reserve system. Its sweeping plains boast chenopod (saltbush) shrublands and ephemeral wetlands. Creek beds are lined by grand old River Red Gums; squat, twisted and pocketed with bird hollows. Due to it's remote location, Boolcoomatta Station required a reliable off grid power systembuilt to handle the demands of tough station life.
