Residential Off Grid Solar & Battery Systems

Complete solar, battery and generator systems for homes beyond the grid.

From rural family homes to remote properties and high-end builds, every system is designed around the property, the loads and the way you plan to live.

Off-grid power designed and installed by MyEnergy since 2010.

What MyEnergy provides

Your home comes first.

We start with what you need to run, how often you use it and what may be added later. Air conditioning, electric cooking, hot water, pumps and sheds all shape the system. A full-time home needs year-round capacity; a weekender may have a different operating pattern and backup requirement.

One complete household power system.

01

Generate & store

Solar sized for the location and winter conditions, with battery storage matched to evening and overnight use.

02

Run everyday loads

Inverter capacity for simultaneous appliances and the starting demand of pumps, compressors and other motors.

03

Back up & monitor

Compatible generator integration, operating controls and monitoring suited to the property’s communications.

A practical approach

Designed for the days that matter.

The real design work is making sure the system can respond through winter, poor weather and higher-than-normal use. We work through the balance of solar, storage and generator operation with you, including what an EV, extra shed or future extension could change.

From assessment to delivery

A practical path
through the project.

MyEnergy has designed and delivered power systems since 2010. Our team connects the design, equipment and installation with long-term operation.

01

Assess your requirements

Review the property, current equipment and what the system needs to achieve.

02

Develop the scope

Explain the suitable configuration and the installation or integration work required.

03

Install & commission

Complete the agreed work, test operation and explain how to use and support the system.

Common questions

Before you
get started.

Do I need to choose a battery size first?

No. Share the property details, appliances and plans. We work out suitable inverter power, solar generation and battery storage.

Can I run air conditioning and electric cooking?

These can be included when the system is designed for their demand. We assess the equipment ratings, operating times and other loads that may run together.

Can the system grow with the property?

Expansion can be planned where the equipment, layout and electrical design allow it. We identify practical options before selecting the initial configuration.

Start with everyday life

Tell us how you plan to live.

From the kitchen to the workshop, the right off-grid system starts with how your household uses power. Bring your plans, even if they are still taking shape.

A few details about home
  • Property location and building plans
  • Full-time or part-time occupancy
  • Major appliances, pumps and sheds
  • Future EVs, buildings or equipment
 

Designed for the Days That Matter

Off-grid systems are easy to size when the sun is shining.

The real design work is making sure they continue to perform through winter, poor weather and higher-than-normal power use.

We size around:

Winter Solar

Solar production can drop significantly through the colder months, so system sizing needs to reflect the conditions you will actually face year-round.

Battery Capacity

The battery needs enough stored energy to carry the property overnight and through periods of reduced solar generation.

Peak Power

A home may use relatively little energy over a day but still require substantial power for short periods.

Pumps, compressors, air conditioners and electric cooking all need enough inverter capacity to operate properly.

Generator Backup

For most permanently occupied off-grid homes, a generator forms part of the overall system.

It provides backup during prolonged low-solar periods and allows the batteries to be charged when required.

Rather than treating the generator as an afterthought, we design it as part of the complete power system from the start.

Off Grid Home in the Adelaide Hills
 

Built for Long-Term Off-Grid Use

When your home has no grid connection, reliability matters more than chasing the cheapest equipment.

We build residential systems using products we know, support and have used across real off-grid projects.

Our approach includes:

  • Proven off-grid equipment
  • Remote system monitoring
  • Generator integration
  • Practical system layouts
  • Capacity for future expansion
  • Equipment that can be serviced and supported

MyEnergy is a long-standing Victron Energy distributor and service agent, and Victron equipment forms the backbone of many of the remote power systems we design.

Your project is also handled by our own team from design through to installation and commissioning.

No handover between one company designing the system and another trying to make it work on site.

Experience That Goes Beyond Residential Solar

Since 2010, MyEnergy has delivered remote power systems for:

  • Residential properties
  • Farms and agricultural sites
  • Commercial operations
  • Resorts
  • Remote infrastructure

Our projects have also been recognised with Clean Energy Project of the Year in 2023, 2024 and 2025, along with Master Electrician of the Year in 2024.

Start With the Right System

You do not need to know exactly what size battery or inverter you need before speaking with us.

That is our job.

To get started, we generally need to understand:

  • Where the property is located
  • Whether it will be occupied full-time or part-time
  • The size and type of home
  • Major electrical appliances
  • Heating and cooling requirements
  • Pumps, sheds or machinery
  • Any future loads you are planning

From there, we can recommend a system configuration and give you a realistic indication of the project budget.

We can also plan the system so it can grow with the property, whether that means adding more battery storage, additional solar or greater inverter capacity later.

Trusted Components Built for Off-Grid Power

An off-grid system is only as reliable as the components behind it. We don’t experiment with unknown brands or short-term solutions — we use equipment that has proven itself in real off-grid conditions across Australia.

Every system is built using well-supported, field-tested components that are designed to handle remote environments and long-term use.

Ready to Build Off-Grid?

A reliable off-grid home starts with getting the system design right from day one.

Whether you're still planning, already building, or upgrading an existing system, MyEnergy can help you work through the power requirements, system size and best way to set the property up for the long term.

Send us your plans, expected loads or property details and we'll take it from there.
