Gecko Solar Remote Stand-Alone Solutions
Perfect for the remote homestead or weekend beach house, the Gecko Solar Pad and Roof Mount System is designed to be mostly pre-built offsite and installed in less than a day onsite. Roof mounting of the Pv modules on your pre-existing roof minimises the cost and time of installation. Other system components are enclosed in a Pad mounted in fully wheatherproof lockable enclosure, allowing easy access and excellant protection of your investment. Systems are based around SMA's Sunny Is Inverters including the Si2012, Si2024 and the Si5048 Inverter/charger. Sealed Gel Batteries are also used to minimise maintenance. Available in Single and three phase, with or without Automatic Genset operation. These units can be delivered and installed anywhere in Australia. Sizes available from 1kWp (6x 170W Panels) and up. Contact Gecko Solar today to find out more.
Gecko Solar Drop in Remote Solar Power Systems
The heart of the system, the Sunny Is Inverter/charger allows for Solar Arrays, wind turbines, diesel generators etc to now be coupled on the AC side along with 240v loads, this elimantes the need for expensive Dc cabling used in older systems and allows for easy expansion of the system whilst also increasing efficiency. Systems are expandable from 3kWp to over 100kWp in both single and three phase operation.
