Port Victoria, South Australia, is a coastal town on the Yorke Peninsula, known for its rich fishing history and scenic coastline. Located approximately 200km northwest of Adelaide, it offers a peaceful rural lifestyle. While some areas have grid access, extending power to remote properties can be costly, making off-grid power a practical and reliable choice.
Power Challenges in Remote Living
This homeowner did not have a grid connection and needed a way to power their home. Connecting to the grid would have been too expensive and unreliable due to the rural location. This property required a stable and flexible off-grid power system, so they reached out to MyEnergy.
