100% independence - with or without a grid connection

Grid independence with solar power

A hut in the Alps, a house in Spain or a nature reserve in Belgium - all these systems have one thing in common, and that is self-sufficient supply with European grid quality. That comes courtesy of 100% renewable solar power or in combination with additional energy sources.

Benefits

100% independence from the utility grid and electricity costs

The system in detail

Declare your independence with the off-grid system and its components.

  • PV system

    The PV system modules on your roof convert sunlight into solar power.

  • Sunny Boy

    The SMA inverter from the Sunny Boy family makes the perfect partner to your off-grid system. It converts the direct current generated by the PV system into alternating current, working in harmony with the Sunny Island battery inverter.

  • SMA Smart Connected

    For off-grid systems with internet connections, SMA Smart Connected will automatically monitor your inverter. Even before you notice a problem, the system has already notified the installer and a solution is on its way.

  • Diesel generator

    The diesel generator ensures that your off-grid system is kept supplied with power even when there is little sunshine.

  • SMA ShadeFix

    SMA ShadeFix is a patented, integrated software application that optimizes energy yield in PV systems. SMA ShadeFix outperforms most conventional hardware-based methods for (partially) shaded PV systems.

  • Battery inverter

    The SMA Sunny Island battery inverter is both the heart and the brain of any off-grid system. The durable unit with exceptional overload capacity manages all loads and generators.

  • Sunny Portal

    With the new Webconnect system, there is no need to have a separate communication unit. Up to four SMA devices can communicate with the router directly and transmit their data to the monitoring portal.

  • Battery

    The battery* stores the solar power with maximum efficiency and makes it available again as required. Various lead-acid and lithium batteries with 48 V technology are compatible with the Sunny Island.

    *From SMA's partners such as LG Chem and BYD.
