Off Grid Generators
Off-Grid Generators for Homes and Properties Without Utility Power
Living off-grid means generating and storing your own power full-time, not just during an outage, which calls for a different category of equipment than typical backup generators. Our off grid generator selection spans large-capacity battery systems from EcoFlow, Anker SOLIX, Jackery, Nature's Generator, and Bluetti, dedicated hybrid solar inverter systems from Rich Solar, and fuel-based options from Cummins and Wildcat for properties needing a reliable backup source alongside solar.
Whole-Home Battery Systems Built for Daily Use
Unlike a power station meant for occasional backup, systems like the Anker SOLIX E10 Whole-Home Backup System, scalable from 6 to 90kWh, and Nature's Generator's Powerhouse and MyGrid 10K lines are built to be your property's primary power source, recharging daily through solar and supporting expansion batteries and power pods as your needs grow. EcoFlow's DELTA 3 lineup and the Pro Ultra X battery extend this same capability, with the Anker SOLIX E10 Prime and Ultra Off-Grid Kits bundling the battery system directly with 440W rigid solar panels for a more complete out-of-box setup.
Rich Solar: True Off-Grid Hybrid Inverter Systems
For properties needing a full electrical installation rather than a plug-and-play power station, Rich Solar's Complete Off-Grid Solar Kit and 48V hybrid inverter systems, including the 3kW inverter and 6000W cabin kit, are built for permanent off-grid installations like cabins or remote homes, wiring solar, battery storage, and inverter output into a property's electrical system rather than functioning as a portable unit you plug devices into directly.
Fuel-Based Backup for Off-Grid Reliability
Solar output drops during extended cloudy stretches, which is why many off-grid setups pair battery and solar systems with a fuel-based backup. The Cummins Onan QD3200 suits mobile or RV-based off-grid living, while Wildcat's 60kW Roughneck generator, running on natural gas or propane, provides serious continuous backup capacity for larger off-grid properties that need a dependable fallback when solar alone isn't enough.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is an off-grid generator system different from a typical home backup generator?
For most full-time off-grid setups, yes, since even well-sized solar and battery systems can run low during extended cloudy periods or unusually high usage days. A unit like the Wildcat Roughneck or a smaller dual fuel generator gives you a reliable fallback that doesn't depend on weather, which matters considerably more for full-time off-grid living than it does for occasional backup use where a shorter gap in power is more tolerable.
Do I need a Rich Solar hybrid inverter system, or is a battery power station like the Anker SOLIX E10 enough?
This depends heavily on your daily energy consumption and how much sun exposure your location gets, but off-grid setups generally require significantly more solar wattage than a backup-only system, often several times more, since the system needs to fully recharge daily rather than just occasionally during outages. Calculating your average daily watt-hour usage and comparing it against your region's typical sun hours is the starting point for sizing solar capacity correctly, and it's often worth erring toward more capacity than the bare minimum calculation suggests.
How much solar capacity do I actually need for full-time off-grid living?
A portable battery system like the SOLIX E10 or EcoFlow DELTA 3 works well for properties with moderate power needs and some flexibility in how power is distributed. A Rich Solar hybrid inverter system is generally the better fit for a permanent, full-property installation, like a cabin or remote home, where you want solar, storage, and inverter output wired directly into standard household circuits rather than managed through a portable unit's outlets.
Should I add a fuel generator as backup even if I'm primarily running on solar?
A backup generator is sized to cover a home temporarily during an outage, while an off-grid system is designed to be a property's ongoing, daily power source, which generally means significantly more battery capacity, more solar panel wattage, and a system built for continuous cycling rather than occasional use. Off-grid setups also tend to include more robust expansion options, since running out of stored capacity isn't a rare emergency scenario but a real possibility during normal day-to-day use.
