Solar, Battery & Diesel Hybrid Pumping Solutions
Keeping water flowing to your crops and livestock is non-negotiable. MyEnergy Engineering designs and installs custom pumping systems that combine solar, battery storage, and diesel generator backup. Our solutions work with any pump type — from bore pumps to irrigation systems — and are built to handle the challenges of Australian farms.
How Hybrid Pumping Works
- Solar Power supplies free energy during the day.
- Battery Storage captures excess solar to keep pumps running at night or in poor weather.
- Diesel Generator Integration provides backup when solar and battery supply can't meet demand.
This flexible design ensures your farm has a continuous, reliable water source in all conditions.
Why Choose a Hybrid Pumping Setup?
- Works with Any Pump - From submersible bore pumps to high-flow irrigation pumps, we design systems to suit your setup.
- Reliable 24/7 - Solar and batteries handle the day-to-day, with a generator as insurance for peak or backup needs.
- Reduce Diesel Costs - Rely on solar first, cut down fuel use, and only run the generator when absolutely needed.
- Scalable - Start small and expand as your farm grows.
- Remote Ready - Reliable power and water, even where the grid can't reach.
Why Work with MyEnergy Engineering?
- Independent & Brand Agnostic - We design systems around your pump and your needs, not locked into one brand.
- Off-Grid Specialists - Over a decade building solar-battery-diesel systems for remote and regional farms.
- Custom Design - Every farm is different. We size and configure systems for your water source, pumping hours, and seasonal demands.
- In-House Installation & Support - Our team takes care of design, installation, and ongoing service.
FAQ
Q: Can you design a system for my existing pump?
Yes. We build systems around the pump you already have or supply a new pump if required.
Q: Do I always need a generator?
Not always. Many farms run on solar and battery alone, but a diesel generator adds peace of mind for irrigation or during long cloudy periods.
Q: How much diesel will I save?
Most of the pumping load is handled by solar and batteries. Generators typically run only as backup or during heavy seasonal demand, cutting diesel use significantly.
Q: What happens if my farm grows?
Our systems are fully scalable - you can add more solar panels, more batteries, or a larger generator as your demand increases.
Q: How long will the system last?
Solar panels have a 25+ year lifespan, batteries typically 10-15 years, and pumps and generators vary depending on usage and servicing.
