ILUE POWER victron energy Introduction Off-grid The presence of a functional electricity grid is not always as obvious as it would seem to be. An insufficient infrastructure is often the cause for an unreliable grid. Things become even more difficult when there is no grid at all. And yet you are in need of a reliable electricity supply. A local and properly functioning system is the only answer at this point. Victron Energy offers you such an answer. We are proud to offer you our modern translation for freedom and independence. Energy, Anytime, Anywhere. Hybrid systems If the sun is your...

Energy. Anytime. Anywhere. Application examples Our products are being used in all off-grid and grid-connected systems, for example autonomous buildings, oil platforms and private houses. Nuarro Lodge Eole Water

Nuarro Lodge: Sustainable and responsible tourism in Mozambique Nuarro Lodge Located on the shores of the warm and azure Indian Ocean in northern Mozambique, lies the remotely, but specifically chosen Nuarro Lodge. Backed by the wild Mozambican bush, fringed with old and established baobab trees to the back; and fronted by the calm and aquamarine bay of Nanatha, the lodge is peppered along a more than 2 km-long, powderywhite beach in the middle. Behind the scenes, powering the Nuarro Lodge lighting, is a newly upgraded Victron Energy hybrid-30kVA, 3-phase system with 38kWp of solar power....

Energy. Anytime. Anywhere. The 38 kWp solar power is generating an average energy of 180kWh per day, which is partly used by the lodge during the day and also stored in the battery bank for night use. During overcast days and high night loads the generator automatically starts based on the SOC (State of Charge) setting in the BMV battery monitors. The Color Control GX is connected via long range Wi-Fi to the Wi-Fi satellite router which connects to the internet for remote monitoring and management. The entire lodge can run from solar including the borehole pump, water treatment plant, the...

Eole Water: Making water from air with Victron Energy Eole Water Eole Water is the pioneer in the field of water making systems using air as a source of water. The company has invented the first wind turbine able to create drinking water from condensed air. Today, 150 million of people worldwide live in remote areas without any access to safe drinking water. The Eole Water's mission is to provide these isolated communities with drinking water. An atmospheric water generator (AWG) is a device that extracts water from humid ambient air. We at Victron Energy are delighted that Eole Water of...

Victron inside and out Depending on the model, Eole Water uses a range of Victron Energy products inside and out in their automatic water generators: • Autotransformers • MultiPlus inverter/chargers • Lithium batteries (with cell balancing and Battery Management Systems [BMS]) • BMV-700 battery monitor • Color Control GX (for both on & off site control and monitoring) • Solar Charge Controllers • BlueSolar Panels • VRM (Victron Remote Management) Portal For further information on Eole Water projects please visit: http://www.eolewater.com/ Solar panels color...

DC Systems In DC systems solar energy is converted into regulated DC. Consequently the regulated DC is fed to the batteries and consumers. An inverter powers any AC consumers that are connected to the DC system. Unlike in DC systems, solar power is directly converted into AC in AC systems. DC OUT SmartSolar charge controller MPPT 100/50 Solar Panels 1. DC consumers A solar panel feeds the consumers practically directly. The only item in between the panel and the power consumer is a charge controller. This BlueSolar charge controller controls the voltages for the consumers and the batteries.

DC systems PowerAssist – boosting the capacity of grid or generator power This unique Victron feature allows the MultiPlus to supplement the capacity of the grid or generator power. Where peak power is so often required only for a limited period, the MultiPlus will make sure that insufficient grid or generator power is immediately compensated with power from the battery. When the load reduces, the spare power is used to recharge the battery bank. It is therefore no longer necessary to size a generator on the maximum peak load. Use the most efficient size generator instead. Note: this...
