Solar Apps
Off grid power solution
Solar Apps provides off grid applications in a standard 20 foot shipping container. The system is pre-assembled in a controlled environment and can therefore be set up on site in a couple of hours with 4 semi skilled personnel. Energy is immediately available through battery/fuel cell storage. Solar Apps is a quick deployment, off grid solution. Its main target is to provide power to locations which are far off from the grid. Requiring no specialised Engineering support on site, the solution is ideal to power poor villages or Telecom Base Stations which are far from the grid. In this way, power can be made available within a few days from order instead of waiting a few years for grid extension, or having to provide a constant fuel supply for generators The Solar Apps is also a direct replacement for the diesel generator.
