Our flagship system for factories
Grid tie feed-in gets paid
Does your factory have a large roof space? Does your factory use a large amount of Electricity? We can install a custom-designed power plant for your facility that allows you to produce a significant amount of your own electrical power using solar power.
A grid tie system is perfect for factories because when you have too little then you can draw any shortfall from the grid seamlessly and if you have too much solar power then the excess is sold back to the power utility for a fair price. Once the system is installed…it just works, no need to manage anything.
Talisman tool hire Strand, Laignsburg and Kleinmond
In February 2020 We were contacted by Mr. Koos de Villiers of talisman tool-hire in strand. He had recently built a new building for the talisman Tool hire shop and had prepared the new building with basic infrastructure to go off-grid. This included a bore hole, water tanks, a utility room for solar and batteries, a large north facing roof and efficient systems all around.
We started by installing a 12 kw 3 phase solar pv grid tie system, connected to the grid and registered to feed back excess power to the city for credit. the project was started in late may of 2020 under trying and restrictive conditions of Covid lockdown. The project was completed in July of 2020 when the city them permission to connect and switch on. from then even in July the system produced almost enough power to run all the operations and the business’s power requirements from the city dropped to near zero during the day. As the days got longer toward summer the system steadily produced more power until talisman started to make a small profit from selling the excess power.
in 2021 load-shedding became a bigger problem and Mr. de Villiers commissioned Flagship Solar to install a battery and inverter system at his home to cover load-shedding. We were then also given the project to put up a battery and inverter system at the talisman in strand. As the load-shedding problem became heavier over the months, we upgraded the system until we ended up with a 15 kw victron inverter with 12 kw of solar support and 28 kw of lithium battery.
In the building there are now 4 businesses that run without any power outages or loss of production due to unstable or unreliable power. these are, talisman tool hire, Hi Services gas, Campus solutions and Drawa wheelbarrows.
the boardroom has also become a favorite asset for Oom Koos to rent out to local entrepreneurs and a community of people and businesses have formed and thriving around the “Talisman Hub”
The client is so impressed with the system that we also did a fully off-grid solar and battery system each at Talisman Laignsburg and Talisman Kleinmond and 2 other private sites.
The combined flagship Solar systems at the work and private sites have brought joy to everyone involved as both in work and in home life the family is not burdened by power outages, load-shedding or tariff price hikes.
