CHRISTMAS ISLAND PROJECT
SWITCH FROM DIESEL TO RENEWABLE ENERGY RESULTS IN
75% COST SAVING
THE CHALLENGE
​
On Christmas Island an environmental research project is transforming former mining sites into agricultural land.
​
The Seed clearing shed required for the land transformation are in a remote off-grid location resulting in high operational costs for the diesel generators that power them.
​
​
OUR SOLUTION
Unlimited Energy Australia custom designed a solar renewable energy solution providing reliable, consistent energy to run the cool room for 24 hours and provide surplus energy for power tools, seed processing machines and lighting.
​
The solution is comprised of: 11,7 kW solar installation and 14.4kWh Tesvolt battery system.
The switch from polluting diesel to renewable energy has resulted in lower maintenance, silent and environmentally friendly operation and lowered operational costs by around 75%.
