Remote Power

Off-Grid Microgrid Solution

Wind, solar, diesel, and semi-solid battery storage in one modular power system for remote camps, construction sites, and harsh-field operations.

Plan a Remote Site

Camp and Work-Site Microgrid

Reliable power where weather, fuel logistics, and uptime all matter.

Remote camps and work sites need power that can survive weather, logistics delays, and changing loads. Convol Energy packages PV, wind-ready controls, semi-solid battery storage, backup diesel generation, grid-forming inverters, distribution, and digital EMS into a field-deployable microgrid.

The system can operate fully off-grid or connect as a grid-tied resource when utility service is available. For larger fleets, the EMS layer can coordinate dispatch across sites and support VPP-style aggregation.

Integrated Architecture

Wind, solar, diesel, storage, and EMS in one dispatchable system.

Renewable generation

Solar PV and wind-ready controls reduce diesel runtime and support daytime camp loads.

Semi-solid battery storage

Grid-forming storage stabilizes voltage and frequency while absorbing PV output and load swings.

Diesel backup

Auto-sync backup generators cover extended weather events, peak loads, and reserve requirements.

Capabilities

Built for fast deployment and hard operating conditions.

Wind-solar-diesel-storage architecture

PV and wind-ready inputs reduce fuel burn, semi-solid batteries provide grid-forming stability, and diesel backup covers prolonged weather events or heavy transient loads.

Built for harsh weather

The field design has been applied in extreme heat, sub-zero cold, 100+ mph wind exposure, sandstorm conditions, and snow-prone remote sites.

Modular rapid deployment

Containerized and truck-loaded modules simplify logistics. With site preparation and equipment staging complete, a 300+ person camp can be powered on a one-week deployment schedule.

Remote digital control

EMS monitoring, dispatch, alarms, and diagnostics allow operators to manage PV, batteries, generators, critical loads, and operating modes remotely.

Off-grid or grid-tied operation

The same platform can run as an islanded microgrid or connect to the utility grid for backup, peak shaving, resilience, or export-oriented dispatch.

VPP-ready energy asset

Fleet-level controls can aggregate multiple microgrids or storage systems into a virtual power plant for dispatch, demand response, or resilience programs.

Project Economics

Designed to cut fuel cost and reduce outage risk.

On diesel-heavy remote sites, solar and storage can materially reduce fuel burn, transport exposure, generator maintenance, and outage cost. Payback targets depend on fuel price, delivered fuel logistics, load profile, and site utilization.

  • Lower delivered energy cost by reducing diesel runtime and fuel logistics.
  • Target 2-3 year payback on diesel-heavy remote sites, depending on fuel price, transport cost, load profile, and utilization.
  • Long-life system planning with 12+ year operating horizon and replaceable modular components.
  • Reduced outage exposure for camps where downtime affects safety, labor productivity, and construction schedule.
