Bedarra Island Resort is approx. 10km south east of Mission Beach in Far North Queensland.
In 2012 Solect Energy (then Mission Beach Electrical) designed and installed an Off-Grid power station to supply daily loads of approx. 140kWh. Since then, the island has expanded its accommodation and services; consequently, loads slowly increased to approx. 300 - 340kWh per day.
In 2018, the owners of the resort decided to explore options to upgrade the power supply to not only cover the existing loads but allow for future expansion and the air-conditioning of all guest cabanas.
With this brief, Peter King started work on designing a fully automated off-grid power system using the highest quality components and equipment that would supply enough power for loads of 500-600kWh per day with minimal generator run time.
