Solar Power Systems
Overview
Solar Power Systems provide a reliable and proven source of DC power by converting sunlight directly into electricity. Since the early 1980’s, we’ve provided thousands of Solar Power Systems all across North America from a few watts to several kilowatts for both off-grid and grid-tie applications.
Off-Grid Solar:
Off-Grid Solar Power Systems are standalone systems not connected to the electric utility grid. Balance of system components including charge controllers, inverters/converters, batteries and battery boxes are provided to complete our systems.
Grid-Tie Solar:
Grid-Tie Solar Power Systems are systems connected to an electric utility via grid-tie power inverters. Grid-Tie systems allow the owner to use electricity generated and any surplus electricity is typically fed back into the electric grid.
System Design:
-
Systems are configured for the specific geographical location and load demands
-
Solar calculations and sizing is performed using the latest solar radiation data, surface meteorology data & sizing programs
-
Comprehensive Site Survey Services available: Shading & Obstruction Analysis, Complete Sizing Reports, Equipment Loading & Power Draw Estimation, Complete I&O Manuals & Drawings, Custom-Engineered Designs
Mounting Options:
We offer a variety of mounting options to satisfy virtually any budget and/or site requirement.
RP Series Retractable Mast
Our patented RP Series Retractable Mast is a safe and convenient solution for mounting solar arrays to a pole structure at ground level. The system can be raised and lowered via a hand-crank or power drill for safe and easy installation, maintenance and replacement.
Fixed Pole
Our Fixed Pole Systems are a cost-effective solution for mounting single or multiple solar arrays to an aluminum pole structure. Fixed Pole Systems can be equipped with an optional ladder (on back of pole) to help faciliate periodic maintenance and troubleshooting.
Ballasted (PV PowerStation)
Our Ballasted (PV PowerStation) System combines a solar array, charging & monitoring equipment, batteries, battery box, ballast and adjustable leveling supports. This flexible design can be constructed in a few hours and can be used as a permanent or temporary solution.
Ground Mount
Our Ground Mount Systems are a cost-effective mounting solution when and where space permits. We can provide a variety of ground mount options large and small from reputable manufacturers.
VersaTilt
Our VersaTilt Mount is designed to allow solar arrays to be adjusted to reach multiple desired tilt angles horizontally from 0° – 55°. This gives the system the ability to achieve maximum performance during the change of seasons.
Roof Mount
Our Roof Mount Systems are a good fit for commercial applications as they make use of often unused real-estate (roof). Systems can be flush mount or mounted at a desired tilt angle. Systems are designed in accordance with applicable codes.
Components:
Balance of system components including batteries, battery boxes, charger controllers/inverters are provided to complete our systems.
Batteries
Batteries play a vital role within your critical power system. All batteries are not created equal. We can provide both nickel cadmium and lead acid batteries as components of our systems.
Battery Boxes
Our innovative Battery Boxes are designed to shield and protect battery systems located in harsh outdoor environments. We offer several standard sizes and can provide a high level of customization based on customer requirements.
Controllers / Inverters
High-quality Controllers, Relay Drivers, Inverters and Converters can be provided to complete our systems and come pre-wired and pre-assembled to customer requirements.
