Built around the realities of remote work
Distance changes what good power needs to deliver.
When the nearest support is hours away, the system needs to be planned properly from the start. Heat, dust, heavy loads, seasonal work and transport access all shape the design.
We bring experience from station homesteads, shearing sheds, workshops and larger pastoral operations to every project. That means considering how your property runs today, and what you will need it to do next.
01 / Reduce generator reliance
Put solar and storage to work.
Use solar generation and stored energy to take on more of the daily load, with generator backup matched to the property’s needs.
02 / Handle the working day
Design for real station loads.
Account for motor starts, refrigeration, staff accommodation and the changing demands of pumping, shearing and workshop equipment.
03 / Plan the next stage
Leave room for what comes next.
Consider new sheds, additional accommodation and future equipment early, so expansion can be part of a planned system.

Featured project / South Australia
Murnpeowie Station
A three-phase power system built and tested in a 20ft insulated container before delivery. Solar and batteries supply station loads, with the existing generators integrated for automatic backup.
We do as much of the assembly, configuration and testing as practical before travelling to site. It is an approach built around distance, logistics and getting the installation right.
Workshop fit-out for the Murnpeowie Station system.
01
Understand the property
Review energy use, peak loads, existing generators, site access and future plans. Start with the way your station operates.
02
Engineer the whole system
Match solar, batteries, inverter capacity and generator controls. Choose a cabinet, container or suitable existing building for the equipment.
03
Build, test and commission
Our in-house team assembles and tests equipment where practical, then installs and commissions the system on site.
04
Stay involved
Remote monitoring, fault finding, servicing and planned upgrades help keep the system working as station needs change.
Can you upgrade our existing station power system?
Yes. We assess the existing solar, batteries, inverters, generators and distribution before recommending what to retain, replace or expand. Projects such as Koonamore, South Gap and Todmorden show how upgrades can work with existing station infrastructure.
Can we keep our existing diesel generator?
Where the generator is suitable, we can integrate it with the new solar and battery system for backup and battery charging. We check capacity, condition and control compatibility as part of the design.
What size solar and battery system does a station need?
We size the system around daily energy use, overnight demand, motor starting loads, seasonal work and future plans. Pumping, shearing, workshops, refrigeration and staff accommodation can have very different operating patterns.
Do we need a shipping container?
Not every site does. We can discuss a purpose-built power cabinet, a containerised system or installation within a suitable existing building. The choice depends on system size, available space, site conditions and future expansion.
What happens during cloudy weather or high demand?
The system manages solar, battery storage and generator support together. Battery capacity and generator start settings are designed for the site, so backup generation can support loads and recharge storage when required.
How do you support a station after installation?
With an appropriate communications connection, remote monitoring lets our team review system performance, alarms and generator operation. We also provide fault finding, servicing and upgrades, with support arrangements agreed for the property.

Reliable and Scalable by Design
Station loads rarely stay the same forever.
New sheds, pumps, accommodation, refrigeration or machinery can quickly change the power requirements of a property.
We design systems with that in mind.
A typical MyEnergy station system combines:
Solar generation
Lithium battery storage
Victron inverter/chargers
Automatic generator backup
Remote monitoring
Purpose-built system housing
Where required, systems can be designed so solar, battery storage and inverter capacity can be expanded over time.
This means you can install what the property needs today without limiting what it may need in the future.
Built, Installed and Supported by MyEnergy
One of the biggest advantages of working with MyEnergy is that we remain involved throughout the life of the system.
Our in-house team manages:
System sizing and design
Equipment selection
Workshop assembly
Installation
Commissioning
Remote monitoring
Fault finding
Servicing
Future upgrades
Where practical, systems are assembled, configured and tested before travelling to site. This reduces site time and allows us to confirm operation before deployment.
Support That Continues After Installation
A remote power system needs more than a good installation.
It needs ongoing support.
Our monitoring systems allow us to review:
Battery state of charge
Solar production
Power consumption
Generator operation
System alarms
Historical performance
In many cases, our team can investigate issues remotely before anyone needs to travel to site.
We also provide ongoing servicing, generator support and system upgrades as the property's requirements change.
That long-term support is a major part of how we approach remote station power.
We’ve delivered off-grid power systems for remote stations across South Australia, Victoria, Western Australia and beyond, including:
Kolendo • Mt Eba • Wertaloona • Moolawatana • Kondoolka • Nonning • Wilgena • Madura Plains • Anna Creek • Nilpinna • The Peake • Hamilton • Mt Sarah • Mt Barry • Arckaringa • Mahanewo • Boolcamatta • Talopea Downs • Allendale • Meunpeowie • Alton Downs • Ingomar • Epsilon • William Creek • Belmont • Quondong • Kybo • The Twins • Wilpoorina • Blina • Cordillo Downs • Mount Victor • Todmorden • Adria Downs • South Gap • Arcoona • Mabel Creek • Mount Willouby • Lindon • Farina • Girawheen • Andado • Yadlamulka • Tickalara • Belmont • South Gap
This experience across remote Australia gives us a strong understanding of the reliability, scalability and ongoing support station power systems require.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a remote station power system last? Most systems are designed for 15–20 years. Solar panels last the longest, batteries typically 10–15 years, with generators maintained as part of ongoing servicing.
Can you integrate an existing generator? Yes — we regularly integrate existing diesel generators into new solar and battery systems.
How do I know what size system I need? We design systems based on your current usage, peak loads, and future expansion plans.
What happens during poor weather? Battery storage covers multiple days without solar input, with the generator automatically starting when required.
Do you offer remote support? Yes — all systems include monitoring so we can assist without immediate site attendance.
How long does installation take? Typically 4–10 weeks from approval, depending on system size, location, and logistics.
