When a fleet of electric charter boats is so energy-efficient that it generates more power than it uses, standard battery monitoring can struggle with accurate range estimations. For Bernd Rudolf, founder of Woterfitz and a member of the Victron Recommended Software Integrator Program, this was the perfect opportunity to leverage Victron’s open and customisable ecosystem The post Electric charter boats that generate more power than they use appeared first on Victron Energy.

After eight years living aboard their narrow boat Welsh Wizard, Dave and Paula Hill reflect on their experience of off-grid power – Lead acid, and Lithium – as they slowly explore Britain’s 4000km of inland waterways. Dave says: As a retired mechanic and former garage owner, I’ve spent most of my working life being sceptical The post Narrow boaters upgrade to lithium appeared first on Victron Energy.

Madura Plains is a remote sheep station on Nullarbor, an arid, treeless limestone plain of 200,0000km² in south Australia. Its viability depends on bore holes, tanked-reservoirs, and a pumping system through 1400km of water pipelines to over 200 drinking troughs. Until recently water provision across the property relied on a variety of pumping arrangements which The post Irrigating Two-million Acres appeared first on Victron Energy.

A remote reservoir which provides drinking water to over 35,000 customers is entirely monitored and controlled by an off-grid power installation which must not fail. Electricity energises their control systems, operates the water treatment plant, and opens and closes pump valves. The lead acid batteries which had provided back up power were coming to the The post Energy security guarantees town’s water supply appeared first on Victron Energy.

In Warsaw’s Gocławek district, a stretch of everyday infrastructure has been reimagined. A busy viaduct carrying traffic over the PKP Warszawa-Gocławek railway station which has acoustic barriers are now doing more than simply reducing noise — they’re generating energy.
