Marty and Leslie live off-grid in the wilds of the US state of Montana. They use Victron Energy equipment to power their house as well as a 3-phase system for a lumber (timber) equipment business. Marty is prepared for anything the wilds of this state can throw at them, He has lots of solar energy and even uses the excess power to heat underground water-fed pipes in his greenhouses so he and his wife can grow fruit and vegetables all year round. https://icmontana.com/ https://www.victronenergy.com/inverters-chargers/quattro #prepper #victron #victronenergy For technical questions see our support page: https://www.victronenergy.com/support or contact your Victron dealer, distributor or installer.

For this Amish-run business in Indiana, US, connecting to the electricity grid was simply not an option. They had been spending up to $96,000 a year for diesel to run their generator. They now have six Victron Energy Quattro inverters and a bank of lithium powering their workshops. They refit forklift trucks here and can use a lot of power for welding, plasma cutting and compressors. Find out how Solar Energy Systems based in Nappanee in Indiana installed the system.

Ian Herbert-Jones is sailing his 35-foot long sailing boat Puffin around the world solo in the 2022 Golden Globe Race. Technology is the same as back in 1969 when sailor Robin Knox-Johnston won the first race and if anything fails, Ian could be out of the race or even lose contact with race control and that would be fatal. Victron Energy is providing the equipment for the race and Chris Dobson from UK Marine Electronics Ltd is donating his time to build it all.

Scottish Woodlands has built a warehouse for their equipment and despite having all the machinery to install the mains grid to the site, they decided to go completely off-grid. With power-hungry equipment needed to operate in and around the site as well as an increase in the number of buildings, a three-phase supply was created using 108 solar panels, Victron Energy Quattro inverter chargers and BYD lithium batteries. Correction Note: When referencing the main building on the site we described it as a workshop, this building is actually a forestry store. https://www.offgridsolarexperts.co.uk https://www.scottishwoodlands.co.uk #victronenergy #offgrid #scotland For technical questions see our support page: https://www.victronenergy.com/support or contact your Victron dealer, distributor or installer.

Living off-grid is difficult enough but then add high altitude, a family of six, deep snow, bears, wild cats, 7 dogs, and the fact the property is only accessible for 4 months of the year, this then turns into extreme!

With a bank of solar panels and the vision to expand their setup into a business, this film is a must-watch!
