Hybrid · 120 kW Solar + Wind · Completed 2025 
Overview
A coastal lodge wanted reliable off-grid power without a diesel generator running all night. We paired a 120 kW ground array with two small wind turbines and 80 kWh of storage under one hybrid controller.
The Challenge
Sea air, 100 mph gust ratings and a lodge that peaks at dinner — exactly when solar fades. Wind on this ridge blows strongest from dusk to dawn, the perfect complement once modelled properly.
Our Approach
- Full-year wind + solar resource modelling before design sign-off
- Marine-grade corrosion protection on every fitting
- 80 kWh battery bank with generator auto-start as last resort
- Remote monitoring with same-day engineer response
Results
Diesel runtime dropped 92% in year one. The lodge now markets itself as a near-silent eco stay — and charges a premium for it.
