Proserpine and the rural blocks around it

Solar for town blocks, acreage and the farm shed.

Proserpine's a mix of town houses and bigger rural blocks out through the cane country. The bigger the block, the more options there are for where the panels go, and the more a decent battery is worth when the power drops out.

What matters out here

Solar in Proserpine & surrounds

  1. 1

    Shed roofs and ground-mount

    If the house roof is small, shaded or facing the wrong way, a big shed roof often does the job better. No good shed either? A freestanding ground-mounted array can be pointed exactly where it needs to go.

  2. 2

    Pumps, bores and the end of the line

    Pumps and bores are a big daytime load, and running them off the panels instead of the grid is one of the quickest ways to cut a rural bill. Further out where the grid is a long way off, we design full off-grid systems. The electrical side is covered too: new circuits out to sheds and pumps, and fault finding.

  3. 3

    Blackout backup that counts

    Rural lines are often the last to come back after a storm. A battery set up with a backup circuit keeps the fridge, the lights, the pump and a few power points going. Not every battery install does that by default, so it's something we set up on purpose.
