ALTERNATIVE POWER
No one likes rolling blackouts or even temporary loss of power and here at Amandla Power Group, we stick by our tagline – “Keeps the lights on during load shedding”.
Installing solar panels and alternative power options for your home or office could be exactly the solution you’ve been looking for to keep the lights and your productivity going even when you’re facing a load shedding situation.
WHY LOAD SHEDDING
Load shedding, or rolling blackouts, happens when there is a deliberate shutdown of the power grid, either localized or nationalized, to conserve power. This can happen for any number of reasons, but natural or political disasters are usually the most common.
Whilst load shedding can be good for the grid and protect the grid form a more serious failure, it’s not so good for you whether you’re at home or in a working situation, and no power means no productivity and no lights.
So, what can you do?
ALTERNATIVE ENERGY
Solar panels and other forms of alternative energy have come a long way in the last few decades, becoming much more efficient at harnessing the energy of the sun to create cleaner greener electricity and keep the lights on, even when everyone else’s lights are off.
Whether you’re looking for a solar solution for your off-grid home or work environment, we have options that will suit you and continue to work, even in a grid down situation.
SOLAR PANELS
We’ll help you work out your power consumption and how much solar power your area can realistically generate, this will help us to help you choose the right size and array of panels, and the right charge controller to protect your batteries.
BATTERY POWER
Whether you choose to go with a bank of lead-acid batteries, or the newer and more reliable lithium batteries, we’ll ensure you get the right amount of batteries to suit your needs. Coupled with the right charge controller from your solar panels, the right battery management system, and the right ventilation and cooling methods, we’ll make sure your batteries are always running efficiently and safely.
INVERTERS
Having stored solar energy is no good if you can’t use it, and many electronics these days need a reliable power source. We’ll help you to install the right pure-sine wave inverter system to keep any electronics you’re using safe.
Whether you’re running your refrigerator at home, or your laptop at work, never be worried about variable power delivery damaging your specialist equipment.
