Hardware
Installed components
- 21 × 430 W Bifacial Solar Panels (9.03 kWp)
- 2 × 5.5 kW Hybrid Inverters (11 kW AC total)
- 24 × 120 Ah Deep-Cycle GEL Batteries
- Gaya ATS (Auto Transfer Switch) for seamless generator backup
- Smart EMS for source priority & load management
Context
Why grid power wasn’t viable
- High cost: long-distance cabling through dense rainforest is prohibitively expensive.
- Unstable supply: remote-area repairs are slow; outages would risk operations.
- Slow approvals: clearances for protected areas add delays.
- Environmental risk: grid infrastructure would harm pristine ecosystems.
Outcomes
Energy benefits
- 24/7 reliable power for monitoring, communications & mission-critical equipment
- Zero utility dependency; no monthly energy bills
- Major reduction in diesel usage, noise & emissions
- Autonomous operation: solar → batteries → generator (ATS) when needed
