You might be wondering what the difference is between Grid-Tied Solar Systems and Off-Grid Solar Systems or which one might be more suitable for you.

Grid-Tied Solar is connected to the utility power grid. Some advantages of this type of solar are:

• Lower equipment and start-up costs
• Make money back from excess electricity you don’t use
• Access to back up power from the utility grid (if a problem occurs with your solar panels)

Off-Grid Solar Systems are a stand-alone system that does not connect to the utility power grid. Off-Grid systems require battery storage and a backup generator. Battery packs usually require replacement after 10 years. Batteries are expensive and decrease overall system efficiency.

Some advantages of Off-Grid Solar Systems are:

• They can be a cheaper option than extending power lines in remote areas
• You become energy self-sufficient

Hybrid Solar Systems have been described as Off-Grid solar with utility back-up or grid-tied solar with extra battery storage. The Hybrid Solar Systems combines the best from the grid-tied and off-grid solar systems. 

Some advantages of this system are:

• Less expensive than the off-grid systems
• Take advantage of the utility electricity rates throughout the day.

We cater to all sorts of commercial and industrial businesses, from the perfect lighting to light up your store display to give your customers the right “feel” about your shop, to determining the perfect lighting and airflow for your shed, workshop or warehouse. 

Industrial electrical systems can be very different from standard power due to the use of heavy equipment, generally requiring a 3 phase system, and it can be very costly if you do not set it up correctly the first time. We can also analyse your current power usage to determine a suitable solar power system and the amount of time it would take to pay itself off.

Solar power is generally a very good investment for businesses and workshops, because most of your power usage is during the day while you are utilising the free solar power.

Lighting plays a big part in how you feel about your home.

​The correct lighting adds beauty to a room and can make a small room look more open and a large room seem more inviting.

A large light fitting or chandelier is often the first thing you notice walking into any room and can be used to make a statement, on the other hand, subtle forms of lighting such as hidden LED strips above your kitchen splashback or bathroom vanity can also give the immediate feel of luxury.

The other thing to consider with lighting is the colour temperature of a light or lighting system. This is measured from “cool”, which is a bright white to “warm” which is more orange, and anywhere in between. This can dramatically change how a room feels.

It can be very difficult to choose the correct lighting from a magazine or even a showroom. Here at Doecke Electrical, we specialise in all things lighting. We can assist you when choosing the most suitable lighting for your home or office.
