Reliable and Efficient Back-Up Power
A generator plays a critical role in off-grid living, providing backup when the solar panels cannot generate enough power or the battery is depleted.
Backup Power Source: When solar panels and batteries can't meet energy demands, a generator kicks in to supply electricity to essential loads, and ensures uninterrupted power.
Battery Charging: Generators can charge the battery bank directly, helping to maintain the battery's health and prolonging its life during low solar production periods.
Supplementing Power Loads: In cases of high energy demand beyond the capacity of the solar system, the generator can provide supplemental power to handle peak loads.
While off-grid solar systems aim to minimise generator use to save on fuel and maintenance, they are still a vital component for ensuring consistent, reliable power.

Which type of generator is right for you?
Learn about the two different generators you can use with your off-grid system. James explains the difference between our air-cooled and water-cooled generators, in terms of performance and price.Â
Both generators automatically charge the battery and provide peak power, making them the perfect add-on to a Power Hub or Power Board. The key difference is the physical size and run time. Still not sure? Feel free to ask our friendly support team for their advice.
The size depends on your specific power requirements. Our range includes models from 5kVA to 62kVA. Use our Off-Grid Calculator to estimate your needs or contact us for personalized advice.
Regular maintenance includes checking oil levels, replacing filters, and ensuring the unit is clean. Refer to our Generator Troubleshooting Guide for maintenance tips and common troubleshooting solutions.
