The Client
The Kuchel’s live on a rural property in South Australia. The property services a large home, workshed and a number of pumps. The power is unreliable and expensive. During a recent large bushfire that swept through the Northern Adelaide Hills, the family set their property up as a temporary CFS Fire station and allowed access to their water for firefighting. Power to the property was interrupted a number of times and as a result, Colin installed large generator so that the property could continue to have power during a blackout.
The Challenge
Integrating a large solar system with the customer’s backup generator. Plus being able to monitor consumption with no internet available at the work shed.
