Specialized Solar SystemsEstablished in 2007, Specialized Solar Systems is a company that is committed to energy transformation across all sectors. Specialized Solar Systems achieves its objectives by offering innovative solar products and services through a strong distribution network.
Specilaized Solar Systems is a market leader providing accurate energy assessments, application-specific energy system design, commercial-scale project implimentation, training and product support.
The implementation of sustainable solar solutions that empower indigent and disconnected communities is the heartbeat of the company’s operations with many successful projects completed.
The Energydock and Storagedock product range by Specialized Solar Systems aims to provide a durable, compact and complete energy solution in a ground or wall-mountable modular form factor. Designed by a team of passionate solar-engineers, the attractively encased Levels neatly tucks away the very latest lithium iron phosphate batteries coupled with Victrons Blue Power quality grade inverters and components.
As standalone devices, these units can be used as backup energy systems for your business and households. With a simple DC Attachment upgrade, which includes a Victron MPPT, solar panels can be added.
By adding solar panels the Levels can generate then supply their own energy and have the ability to combine solar with grid power making these systems a good investment by giving you energy security and savings for many years.
Dependant on your energy requirements these compact units come
in a variety of Levels to suite the markets energy needs.
Also part of the Energydock range, we offer the very latest storage technologies, Storagedock, featuring lithuim Iron phospate(LiP04) and advance battery managent systems.
Another exciting energy storage solution is RedFlow's ZBM Flow battery technology that is gaining in popularity especially in the telco industry as a theft proof and durable energy storage offreing.
SMARTGRID ELECTRIFICATION - Since 2007, Specialized Solar Systems experience in providing electrification to under-served by the South African National Grid has resulted in the formulation of a set of energy supply principles within acceptable parameters of the traditional electrification paradigm. With this experience that includes working in collaboration with universities, NGO’s, governmental and private enterprises it became evident that the targeted LSM 1-3 human energy requirements could be supplied to support an individual’s basic energy wants and needs using Low Voltage (LV) Direct Current (DC).
These principles safeguard electrification delivery priority for disconnected rural and peri-urban informal settlement communities.
Coupled with efficient DC appliances low voltage DC electrical distribution supports impoverished consumer demographics energy wants and needs from the very basics then progresses to more comfort luxury appliances, enhancing the available options for a consumer as their energy requirements grow.
Traditional grid AC (alternating current) power distribution is facing many challenges. Resources are being depleted, greenhouse emissions are out of control and the costly infrastructure is not always feasible. Sub-Saharan Africa has 150 million unconnected households that still require electrification.
Currently, most electrical devices operate with direct current (DC) internally and most renewable resources generate and store power in DC. Photovoltaic (solar) panels, storage components (batteries) and supercapacitors make use of DC.
Headed by a team of DC-passionate individuals, Specialized Solar Systems well-established brand of Smart DC Grid Technology offers an alternative electrification solution to a failing and inadequate AC grid-electrification infrastructure.
Working with extra-low voltage (ELV) allows Specialized Solar Systems technical teams to develop industrialised renewable energy products with remote management solutions that are rapidly deployable – anywhere.
The company’s product development focuses on affordability, reliability, modularity, sustainability and efficient implementation – offering energy services and products that can be tailored for a variety of income groups everywhere.
ELV energy deliverables have application-specific features such as remote consumption monitoring with automated switching, client management, weather pattern monitoring and a variety of automated customer billing options with payment facilitation. All these features are accessible in an integrated energy framework which forms the core of Specialized Solar Systems’ Smart DC Grid Technology offering.
