At Lithium Batteries South Africa (LBSA), we love seeing our systems hard at work in real-world settings, helping homes, farms, and businesses achieve reliable, high-capacity energy storage. Today, we’re shining a spotlight on a standout installation by Ulwazi Energy at a farm in Weltevreden!
Powering Off-Grid Farming
Earlier this November, one of Ulwazi Energy’s long-time clients approached them with a challenge: take his farm completely off-grid, while ensuring all power needs, including water pumps, would run smoothly. The solution? A robust system built around LBSA high-voltage batteries.
The installation included:
-
1 x 50kW Solis High-Voltage Inverter
-
1 x 72kWh LBSA High-Voltage Battery
-
48kWp Solar Array
This combination provides reliable, clean energy, allowing the farm to operate efficiently no matter the weather or grid conditions.
