AES RACKMOUNT 48-48-5120
North Eleuthera, an outer island in the Bahamas, is the location of a farm house that was converted into a vacation home, located 10 miles away from the nearest power line. Whenever power was required, the home was powered by rotating a pair of 12 kVA diesel generators. Solar Freedom was called in to design an easy to install off-grid solar power system that could be monitored remotely, fully integrated with a backup generator, with a minimum power output of 10 kVA, to replace the aging diesel generators. The solution was two Victron inverters and two MPPT charge controllers operating in a closed-loop configuration through a LYNK II Communication Gateway with nine AES RACKMOUNT lithium batteries, 34 JA Solar panels and a backup 12 kVA Kubota diesel generator. Victron’s VRM platform would provide the remote monitoring to create a window into the solar system’s operations.
