SolarSet builds complete off grid solar systems at the factory and ships them ready to set in place. Each system arrives as one package — solar panels, lithium batteries, inverter and mounting frame already assembled and wired together. Choose the system that matches your daily power demand.

Every off grid solar system SolarSet builds contains the same four elements, sized together as one unit:
Because those four are engineered as a set, the array, the storage and the inverter are matched to one another before the system leaves the building.
Most off grid solar sold online is a kit: a pallet of parts shipped to an address for someone else to design around, mount, wire, and commission. SolarSet works the other way. The solar panel system is assembled, wired and tested at the factory, transported to the site as a finished unit, and set on its foundation.
That matters in three ways. Time – a pre-assembled solar power system goes from delivery to producing power far quicker than an array built up piece by piece on site. Accountability – one manufacturer engineered the whole system, so there is no sorting out which supplier owns a problem. And repeatability – every unit of a given model is built to the same drawing, so the specification you read is the system that arrives.
Off grid means no utility connection at all – the system is the only power source on the property that suits a specific set of situations.
When the nearest service drop is a mile away, extending the utility line can cost more than the solar power system itself. An off grid system takes that extension out of the budget entirely.
Stock tanks, shops, and outbuildings are often spread across ground the grid never reached. A ground-mounted off grid solar system can sit where the load is instead of where the wire ends.
Sites that need power before permanent service exists can run on a solar system rather than a fuel generator, with no refueling schedule and no engine to service.
Repeaters, towers and monitoring stations need power that holds up when nobody is on site for weeks. The Telecommunications page covers the equipment-specific detail.
Cabins, camps and secondary buildings used part of the year still need a full solar panel system while they are occupied. Sizing follows the load during use, not the annual average.
Three numbers decide the size of an off grid solar system, and each one sizes a different part of it:
A property that uses little energy overall but starts a large well pump needs a bigger inverter than its daily total suggests. One with a steady round-the-clock draw needs more storage than one using most of its power in daylight. Available sunlight at the site shifts the panel count as well. The systems on this page are grouped by panel count so the array, the storage and the inverter scale together.
Every system on this page shows its MSRP, and that price moves with the battery and inverter combination rather than the panel array alone – which is why several models come in more than one version. Because SolarSet builds to a standard drawing, a given model is a fixed configuration at a fixed price. Costs outside the system itself, such as the foundation and site preparation, depend on the property.
Off grid is one of three configurations SolarSet builds, and which one fits depends on whether utility power is available at the site.
If there is already a meter on the property, a hybrid or grid tie system is usually the closer match. If there is no service and no practical way to get it, off grid is the configuration built for that.
Yes, within the size chosen. Household appliances run on standard 120 V or 240 V AC from the inverter. Large simultaneous loads – electric heat, well pumps, welders – drive the sizing more than the number of appliances does.
Battery capacity carries the load through low-sun periods. Systems meant to run through extended weather are sized with more storage – which is why the same panel count comes with different battery configurations.
No. SolarSet systems are ground-mounted on their own frame, which is what allows the whole solar panel system to be assembled before it reaches the site.
SolarSet uses lithium batteries for their cycle life and low maintenance. Figures for a specific model are on its data sheet, linked from each system above.
Start with your daily kilowatt-hours and your single largest load – those two numbers narrow the list quickly.
Every system on this page includes a data sheet, a physical drawing and an electrical drawing. If you would rather talk it through, send your daily energy use and your largest single load and we will point you to the systems that fit.
