Servicing areas such as Dubbo, Wellington, Orange, Bathurst, Mudgee, Parkes, Cobar, Bourke and Lightning Ridge, we will customise an off-grid solution for your property type, needs and budget. 


Off-grid solar systems gather energy in specially-built battery systems. They also utilise an inverter to convert the variable direct current (DC) output of the solar panel into a 240V alternating current (AC).
Hybrid inverters, with integrated battery management systems that afford greater power distribution capabilities, are also available. If you’re unsure what off-grid solution will best meet your needs, don’t stress! Our friendly technicians will ensure you receive the best solution.

Off-Grid Solar Benefits

If you've always wanted to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life, it's never been easier to make the switch to off-grid living – and off-grid solar systems are a huge part of this. Read on to learn more about the benefits of off-grid solar systems.

Environmental Impact

Solar panels are considered the future of electricity generation due to their positive impact on the environment. Solar panels don’t produce any air pollution or greenhouse gases when they are being used, which is a big advantage over fossil fuels. Installing an off-grid solar system also means that less energy has to be sourced from other fuel sources that have negative impacts on the environment, so opting for solar panels really is a great choice.

No Long-Term Electricity Costs

With as much of your power as possible coming from your solar panels, you won’t have to worry about high energy bills or electricity costs. All you need is the sun, and as long as the system you install is suitable for your needs, it will be able to harness enough power to keep your home running day to day.


When you work with our experienced team, they will make sure that you have enough solar panels to power your home without you having to make any compromises. They will also assist with the installation of your panels to make sure that they are set up in the most effective way. If you have any questions about this process or you aren’t sure whether an off-grid solar system is the best option for you, make sure to get in touch with our team – we will be happy to address any issues or concerns you have.

Living Off-Grid

Opting for off-grid solar is a great way for you to lead a more sustainable life. As well as generating your own electricity, you'll be responsible for your own water and sewer lines too, so it's a very minimalistic way of living. Living off-grid has never been easier with all of the latest technology that is available, so if you have been waiting for the right time to make this switch, now might be your chance.


When you live off-grid, there are some important considerations to make, including making sure you have the funds to install and maintain your own facilities. While solar power will save you money in the long term, it does require an upfront investment, and you will need the right size system to ensure you can continue to live comfortably.


To enjoy a wonderful, new way of living, make sure to get in touch with us at NSW Country Solar to learn how we can help you get set up with an off-grid solar system. Call us at 02 6845 1519 and speak to a member of our friendly and knowledgeable team for more advice.

What Are Off-grid Solar Batteries?

Off-grid solar batteries are used in conjunction with solar panels in off-grid solar power systems. They store energy generated by solar panels and don’t need to be connected to the electrical grid. Off-grid solar batteries are typically used for remote or backup power applications such as cabins, RVs, boats and telecommunications equipment.


Why Do Off-grid Solar Systems Need A Battery In Rural Areas?

Off-grid solar systems in rural areas need a battery to store the energy generated by the solar panels so that it can be used when the sun isn’t shining. There is often no connection to the electrical grid in these areas and no other source of power available. This is why an efficient storage system is essential. The battery acts as a backup power source, allowing the solar system to continue providing power during periods of darkness or cloudy weather. Even if your property is connected to the grid, it’s still advantageous to have solar batteries, so that you have a reliable source of power during power outages.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can off-grid systems power all my appliances?

    In most cases, yes. Modern off-grid systems have powerful inverters, which can power your home as if it were connected to the grid. However, results will naturally vary – depending on factors like panel location, weather, regular maintenance, etc. 

  • How many batteries will I need for my off-grid system?

    This will depend on your energy requirements. If you want to run your entire household via an off-grid system, more battery storage will be needed than if you want to run only a few appliances. Having a solar regulator in place is crucial for ensuring your batteries aren’t damaged by overcharging. 

  • Can Tesla Powerwalls be used off-grid?

    Yes, Tesla Powerwalls can disconnect from the grid using the Tesla app, putting you in control of your energy and increasing security. To go off-grid, follow the below steps:

    1. Open the Tesla app
    2. Switch to your energy site
    3. Select ‘Configure’
    4. Select ‘Go Off-Grid’
    5. Pair your phone to your Powerwall
    6. Select ‘Take Me Off-Grid’
  • Do I need batteries for off-grid solar?

    Yes, off-grid solar systems require batteries to store energy which can be used day and night.

  • How long do off-grid solar batteries last?

    Solar batteries can last anywhere from five to fifteen years, although certain factors may prolong the battery life.

  • What can prolong the life of an off-grid solar battery?

    The lifespan of a solar battery can be impacted by various factors, including:
