Need backup power?
Start with what must stay powered during an outage and how long the backed-up loads must run.
The most useful first conversation is about what must stay powered.
A serious project discussion should begin with the site, the electrical service, the critical loads, the outage risk, the desired runtime, the available solar area, and whether generator support may be required.
Helpful project information
Before you call or email.
The first discussion is easier when you can describe the site and the power mission.
- Site address and building type
- Current utility service size if known
- Critical loads that must stay powered
- Desired backup duration
- Existing solar, battery, or generator equipment
- Available roof, canopy, ground, or parking area for solar
- Known outage, wildfire, storm, or business continuity concerns
Project types
What MiniGrid.org is built for.
ABC Solar can discuss practical solar-plus-storage and mini-grid planning for:
- Home backup and critical-load systems
- Commercial mini-grids and business continuity
- Battery storage and peak strategy
- Remote sites, farms, ranches, pumps, and gates
- Community facilities, nonprofits, clinics, and food banks
- Disaster recovery and emergency power hubs
Need battery storage?
Start with usable kWh, peak kW, critical loads, runtime, solar recharge, and reserve.
Need remote power?
Start with loads, distance, pumps, motors, service access, communications, and maintenance.
