How to build your own.
Shepherd Electric is a certified electrical contractor which specializes in remote locations of British Columbia. My customers usually have water access or mountain road properties and no services. Whether you are starting new or have a system already. Kevin Shepherd has twenty five years experience with off-grid systems and travels to remote sites to design, install, setup and train you in the operation of your system.
A hydro plant on a stream with enough elevation can provide all the power required with hot water to spare. Some locations have wind potential and most have adequate seasonal solar exposure. West Coast solar gain is seasonal, therefore, well timed for summer cottages. Hybrid systems, combining green power sources with a generator are common. My goal is a shorter run time to reduce the amount of fossil fuel consumed.
Regardless where the electricity comes from my specialty is to build a balanced power handling system designed to suit your site and budget .Systems usually are built around a Battery-Inverter set, including A.C.main electrical service, transfer and generator panels , D.C.panels and battery connections ,all interconnections and programming. I am also able to do on site building wiring and distribution. My designs are safe, simple, and environmentally friendly.
