Mining Off-Grid Systems
Hard working off-grid systems to power WA’s mining industry, no matter how remote the site.
Reduce the risk of power outages at crucial moments with an Off-Grid Power System
Build resilience against power outages at the wrong moment (or any time) with a solar off-grid power system, enabling highly efficient generation and storage of clean energy right on site.
Statewide Power delivers bespoke off-grid power systems, supporting heavy industry and mining projects to operate independently of WA’s ageing power grid.
For mining, the accessibility and flexibility of off-grid power makes it the obvious choice for reliable energy in areas well off the beaten track – and even those close to metro areas.
We’re powering the off-grid solar revolution in mining.
Statewide Power provides exceptional quality, state-of-the-art, stand-alone systems for mining projects in WA. Get in touch with us today to discuss how we can help your site achieve a safer, and more reliable source of power.
Benefits of Mining using Off-Grid Systems
Rising prices and the maintenance of ageing grid systems can make powering your industrial operations more expensive year on year.
Doing things in-house means having more control and often, saving money. Power is no different.
By going off-grid with a tailored system, businesses can opt out of these high energy prices. After the initial investment has been paid, energy from the WA sun is free for the lifetime of the system.
Take control of productivity by going off-grid. With an efficient off-grid solar system, battery storage, and a backup power source, you can effectively eliminate the risk of power outages.
During an emergency like bushfires or storms, or even just an unexpected power outage, access to reliable electricity onsite could have a massive impact on resilience and recovery.
The flexibility of solar off-grid systems allow mining projects to access and power their operations in any conditions, because they are designed and implemented to suit the needs of the site.
Using scalable battery storage, best-in-class solar technology and reliable backup systems, we can help your operations go off-grid even in the most remote of locations.
Having solar-generated energy running your operations can be viewed as a positive step towards environmental responsibility, which is often appreciated by customers looking for a ‘cleaner’ supply chain.
Opting for a solar off-grid system can not only improve business resilience and reduce costs, but can also help build a brand’s image regarding sustainability commitments.
Designing Off-Grid Systems for Mining
The size of the system needed to reliably power a mining site depends largely on how much power is used – each project will differ. To get an idea of the scale of some businesses we have partnered with, check out our recent solar projects.
Statewide Power design and implement custom off-grid power solutions for various industries across WA, and know the value of using built-tough materials for longevity in harsh conditions. We provide the intelligent systems your site needs to reduce operating costs and create a greener footprint, either as permanent installations or as mobile off-grid power solutions. To go truly off-grid, the site will require a combination of:
- Solar panels
- Batteries for power storage
- Backup power source
When it comes to the number and type of each unit, Statewide Power can advise the best fit to ensure years of smooth operation at your site. We build systems for your future, and implement modular, expandable, and ultimately reliable technology from our innovative suppliers.
Highly Efficient Technology for Elegant Energy Solutions
As the experts in off-grid solar systems, we utilise the best equipment from industry-leading partners to create innovative power solutions for any site or situation.

Build business resilience with off-grid power
Going solar is the smart choice for forward-thinking mining operators. As the sunniest state, it makes sense to have an independent solar power system over relying on WA’s existing electricity infrastructure – which can be unavailable or difficult to connect to in remote areas, where much mining is based.
Safeguard against grid failure, cut site energy costs long-term, and reap the benefits of safe, clean, renewable energy for your business with an off-grid power system.
