As you are already aware,

at Blybergs Nature Lodge, we prioritize sustainability, which means we rely solely on solar power to operate all the essential devices that we don't want to go without.

 

Living off the grid comes with the understanding that we have a limited amount of electric power available per day.

 

When the sun is shining, our power supply is almost unlimited. However, please remember to use the big devices wisely.

​

Keep in mind that the hot water boiler needs a lot of power. 

​

You also have the option to visit the page https://home.solarmanpv.com/ or download the solarman smart app.

​

You will be able to monitor the battery status all the time. (The capacity of the batteries is 30KWh)

​

The system is programmed to start the diesel generator if the batteries are drained. So you will never run out of electricity as long as there is diesel in the generator.

 

Never happened before! But keep in mind that the generator will also start in the middle of the night if the batteries run out of power.

 

In the event of a system malfunction, please contact us via whatsapp.
