Off-grid region

Off-grid power through Bendigo and the Loddon.

North through the box-ironbark country and out across the Loddon plains — hot summers, big blocks and excellent solar resource.

The country

What Bendigo & the Loddon asks of a system.

The country north of Bendigo has some of the best generation potential we work in. Long, clear summers and a high annual yield mean arrays here punch above their weight, and winters are milder than in the ranges.

Heat is the design constraint rather than light. Batteries and inverters lose capacity and life when they cook, so equipment placement, ventilation and shading of the gear itself matter more here than almost anywhere else. We site electronics out of the afternoon sun as a matter of course.

  • Battery and inverter placement planned around summer heat, not just cable length
  • Strong annual yield means smaller arrays go further than in the ranges
  • Dust and its effect on panel soiling factored into performance expectations
  • Rural sheds, pumps and irrigation loads sized honestly
