Bugle Ranges, a town just 50 km southeast of Adelaide, may be close to the city, but properties here often require dependable off-grid power, especially for agricultural operations. This property needed an off-grid power system to power a solar bore pump, ensuring a consistent water supply for the land.
Off-Grid Power Challenge for Bore Pumping
The bore pump was located in a small shed in the middle of a paddock, far from any existing infrastructure. With no access to the grid, the owners needed a self-sufficient and reliable system capable of handling the demands of water pumping without interruptions.
A Tailored Off-Grid Solar Bore Pump Solution
MyEnergy designed a fully customised off-grid power system specifically for the solar bore pump, ensuring efficient and reliable operation. The system features eight pole-mounted solar panels, positioned for optimal sunlight capture, with a prebuilt cabinet housing the power system directly underneath for protection.
Built, tested and assembled at MyEnergy HQ before transport, the cabinet houses all critical components in a compact, weatherproof enclosure, shielding them from environmental damage and pests. With 3.52 kW of solar and 10.24 kWh of battery storage, the system delivers stable power to the solar bore pump, ensuring uninterrupted operation, even on cloudy days. The setup is also designed for future expansion, allowing additional storage capacity if water demand increases.
