Objectives & Site Considerations:

Mt Boothby Pastoral Co is a family-owned, mixed farming operation including cows, sheep, pigs and cropping.

The Feed Mill property had been running entirely on diesel, which was extremely expensive and labour-intensive for the organisation.

Load Analysis:

Average summer demand: 129.5kWh
Average winter demand: 129.5kWh
Demand surge: 75.4kW

System Design:

  • Selectronic SP Pro inverter/chargers (45kW)
  • BYD Premium LVL batteries (92.2kWh)
  • Trina Solar modules (99kW)
  • Fronius Symo 3P solar inverters
  • Select.Live online remote monitoring

Project Outcome:

An off-grid system now powers the site, which is used to provide feed to their piggery, and has drastically reduced their diesel costs.

After completing this installation, Mt Boothby called on Off-Grid Energy to complete remedial works for the off-grid system on their Farrowing Property.
