Introduction

EnergyPod are able to offer a series of different Power Systems to meet the requirements of most domestic users. These systems incorporate various renewable energy options, both Photovoltaic (PV) and Wind, as well as a number of packaging options to meet a wide range of domestic and small industrial requirements. The following paragraphs give a taste of some of the options available from EnergyPod, as well as our thinking on the important points for such systems. We would be delighted to discuss your detailed requirements at any time.

System Features

  • No more Power Cuts
  • Range of system sizes (3 KVA to 10 KVA)
  • Reduced energy costs
  • Substantial reduction in CO2 emissions
  • Unobtrusive Green Power 24 hours per day
  • Use of Renewable energy as main source
  • Quiet operation – 64 dbA when motor is running
  • Motor does not run at night unless user preference 
  • Low maintenance
  • Long maintenance period – 1 year

Architecture

The system architecture is designed to produce a reliable and resilient source of 230 Volt A.C. mains electricity for domestic users. This also allows system components of different sizes to be simply accommodated to produce larger or smaller systems. A system block diagram is shown below:

Standard system configurations

AmPS
The EnergyPod Autonomous Micro Power System is configured to produce reliable electrical power for a range of domestic situations, it is particularly designed for users who do not have access to the grid, or who have poor access to the grid, i.e. brown-outs, flickering, or more regular longer period losses of electrical power.

AmCHP
The EnergyPod Autonomous micro Combined Heat and Power System has been configured to take advantage of some of the heat losses from the motor generator set and to give some heat as well as the electrical power.
