POWERING A TEXAS FAMILY FARM
& AGRICULTURAL RANCH
SOL-ARK® HYBRID INVERTERS PROVIDE ENERGY INDEPENDENCE FOR A TEXAS FAMILY FARM
RESIDENTIAL PROJECT OVERVIEW
RaVolt, a leading microgrid manufacturer for residential and light commercial applications, saw an opportunity to help a Texas family achieve energy independence amidst frequent and long-lasting grid outages.
The project required deploying a robust off-grid solar energy storage solution for a large agricultural ranch and five on-site residences. After implementing Sol-Ark’s innovative residential hybrid inverter technology, the family successfully achieved a reliable, uninterrupted power supply that significantly improved their quality of life.
PROJECT CHALLENGES & SOL-ARK® SOLUTIONS
The family residing at the farm and ranch was struggling with frequent and prolonged power outages. Affecting both their agricultural operations and daily life. These local grid failures and disruptions highlighted the need for a robust off-grid solution that could deliver consistent and efficient power, independent of an unreliable grid.
The challenge was to build a comprehensive residential solar energy storage system that could support all energy needs of the ranch and residences while being reliable and cost-effective.
SYSTEM COMPONENTS
- Location: West Texas Family Farm and Ranch
- Solar Array: 50kW
- Inverter Model: Sol-Ark® 60K-3P Hybrid Inverter
- Hybrid Inverter Quantity: 2
