Frequently Asked Questions
What is an off-grid solar system and how does it work?
An off-grid solar system is a complete, standalone power solution that generates electricity from solar panels and stores it in batteries for use when the sun isn’t shining. Operating entirely independent of the electricity grid, it’s the perfect choice for homes, farms, and rural properties across Griffith and the Riverina.
Is off-grid solar a good option for rural Griffith properties?
Yes—off-grid solar is the smart choice for rural properties where connecting to the grid is expensive, unreliable, or simply not possible. It delivers dependable, year-round energy security for homes, sheds, and farm infrastructure across Griffith and the wider Riverina region.
What size off-grid system do I need for my property?
The right system size depends on your energy needs—from the appliances you use to your backup requirements. At Dave Dunbar Electrical and Solar, we design every off-grid system to fit your lifestyle—whether you’re running a simple setup or powering a full household with high-demand equipment like pumps, machinery, or air conditioning.
Can I add a generator to my off-grid solar system?
Absolutely. Many of our off-grid solar systems include generator backup for additional reliability. Generators can automatically kick in during extended cloudy periods or high energy demand, giving you extra peace of mind.
How much does an off-grid solar system cost in Griffith?
The cost of going off-grid depends on your energy needs, battery capacity, and property conditions. In the Riverina, most full off-grid systems range from $15,000 to $50,000+. At Dave Dunbar Electrical and Solar, we provide tailored quotes designed around your property, usage patterns, and long-term energy goals—so you get the right system at the right value.
Do off-grid solar systems include battery storage?
