Off Grid Solar Systems
It’s our dream to help every Australian get ‘off the grid’ one day. This dream keeps us on the leading edge of off-grid solar, solar batteries and stand alone solar systems.

Off-grid energy – what does it mean?
Off-grid solar systems or stand-alone solar systems are designed to provide electrical energy where grid power is unavailable. An off-grid system consists of solar panels a solar battery to store and supply power, and an inverter to control input and output of generated power and optionally a backup generator.
Modern off-grid systems offer online automation and monitoring, providing you complete control over the energy produced and also excess energy stored in solar batteries. The technology for off-grid solar and solar battery systems is constantly improving.
We build off-grid power systems for everything from tiny homes to factories and dairy farms. Our SkyBox is one of the most reliable and powerful off-grid systems in the world, and comes in a range of sizes.

Stand alone power systems
Taking into account rising electricity prices, the decreasing prices of solar and lithium batteries and the desire for more sustainable energy production, many people are now switching to off grid solar systems. PV panels combined with an inverter and a solar battery make independence from the grid a reality.
For those living or planning to live in the country, an off grid solution can not only be more cost effective but actually offer better protection against blackouts and other disturbances.
Due to the advancements in lithium-ion technology, off-grid systems are expandable meaning an Australian choosing to live off-grid are not restricted by battery storage.
We can help you with the various components and considerations when it comes to power consumption and work with you to build a cost effective and robust system.


Off grid energy explained
A stand alone, or ‘off grid’ system generates energy from your solar panels and charges a solar battery, then uses an inverter to provide this power to your home or even back to the grid. Using a solar battery means you can store excess power and draw from this energy reserve whenever required.
Important – not all battery systems come with blackout protection so keep it in mind when you’re planning a system or upgrade.

How an off-grid energy system works
SkyBox is a battery and computer system that manages various energy inputs (solar, wind, generator) and combines them into one singular, reliable output of power, creating a grid-level supply of electricity (including three-phase power).
SkyBox comes in a range of sizes, from a small unit for off-grid ‘tiny-home’, medium units for family homes and businesses and an extensive container size range for large-scale construction applications.

SkyBox – our fully self contained off-grid power supply
Sky Energy have developed the SkyBox; an easy install off-grid solar and battery inverter, designed for both indoor and outdoor use and providing huge battery capacity in one cabinet. The SkyBox can simply be installed by a registered electrician.
This means you can enjoy all the luxury of being on the grid while being off the grid! When you are ready to expand, simply add more batteries to suit your storage requirements. Being fully off-grid certified, SkyBox gives your home easy use, powerful and low maintenance off-grid energy.

Monitoring your system remotely
Take advantage of our panel monitoring service and sit back, knowing your panels are making use of the sun’s energy to their full potential. We are your eyes and ears. If any problems arise, we are alerted and take steps to sort them out for you quickly.
The advantages of remote monitoring mean you can have complete visibility of the performance of your off-grid system, technically and financially as well as alerts for any issues with your system.
Analyse your power consumption, battery levels, and usage patterns plus live power, voltage, and frequency data can help diagnose site issues and monitor energy usage.
The advantage of live monitoring means you can identify why your solar system may not be performing at its peak. High-resolution data, including aggregated data, can easily be accessed from your smartphone, tablet, or computer. This also allows remote troubleshooting by our installer, maintenance, and SkyCare team to resolve any issues quickly.


Aftercare service with SkyCare™
We pride ourselves on our comprehensive aftercare service. If questions pop up regarding your system you can call and speak to one of our SkyCare™ team that same day or we’ll schedule a call back within 36 hours.
All of our team is located here in Australia so you won’t be dealing with an overseas call centre or automated help desk. Sky Energy prides itself on being an innovative and transparent company with all team members working together to provide support to each valued customer.

You’re in good hands
What can you expect from a solar company started and run by electricians and engineers? The right advice when it comes to anything to do with solar. From our extensive hands on experience, we only recommend products of the highest quality that have been tested in the harsh Australian climate and proven to last the journey. This knowledge we pass on to you.

Blackout Protection
Blackout protection is the ability for your inverter and battery system to supply energy to your home if the grid power cuts out. If your house experiences a power loss, you will be able to maintain power to your home using the solar and battery system.
Blackout protection is a complex topic and an important consideration when designing your PV solar system. Our experts here at Sky Energy have published a comprehensive blog explaining all the hows and whys of blackout protection and how it relates to an off-grid energy system.
