Waiheke Distilling Co. – Solar + BESS Microgrid
Overview:
Acclaim Electrical proudly designed and delivered a solar and battery energy storage (BESS) solution featuring New Zealand’s first Pixxi battery system. Built as a resilient microgrid, the system supports the distillery, café, house, and EV chargers—solving issues of limited grid capacity, and high energy bills, as well as avoiding the high lines upgrade cost.
Key Features:
- Microgrid with Pixxi BESS for peak load management
- Infrastructure upgrade for full site power support
- Reduced grid related disruptions and production losses
- Long-term energy cost savings and sustainability gains
This project highlights how microgrid solutions can power remote commercial operations with stability and flexibility.
