Stand-Alone Power Systems for Mining

Engineered by Ningaloo. Constructed by ProGrid.

Remote mining operations need power systems that are tough, reliable, and built to last. That’s why ProGrid has partnered with Ningaloo Energy to deliver purpose-built stand-alone power systems designed specifically for mining environments. 

From early-stage exploration camps to established production sites, we deliver off-grid systems that minimise fuel use, reduce maintenance, and keep your operations running—no matter the location.

What’s in a Stand-Alone System?

Ningaloo’s off-grid mining power systems typically include: 

check icon

Hybrid fuel system micro turbines (12–40kW)

Compact and reliable, these turbines offer flexible power generation using multiple fuel sources—ideal for remote mining sites with variable access to diesel or gas.

check icon

High-efficiency small-scale wind turbines (400W–60kW)

Designed for harsh environments, these wind units complement solar and battery systems by harvesting consistent wind energy, especially in exposed mining regions.

Solar PV Arrays

Scalable solar PV arrays reduce reliance on diesel, cut fuel transport costs, and deliver clean, renewable energy to remote mine sites.

BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems)

Stores excess solar or wind energy and ensures smooth power delivery—day or night—while minimising generator runtime and fuel use.

Remote operation

Systems are built with remote monitoring and control capabilities, allowing operators to track performance and respond to issues without needing to be on-site.

check icon

Low maintenance

All components are selected for durability and simplicity, reducing the need for frequent servicing in hard-to-reach locations.

24/7 on-demand power

Combines renewable generation with battery and backup systems to provide consistent, always-available electricity for critical mining operations.

Grid-connected or off-grid with energy storage

Flexible configuration options to either supplement unreliable grid supply or operate completely independently—with storage to buffer peak demand and downtime.

Every component is chosen for harsh conditions—dust, heat, isolation—and engineered to reduce maintenance cycles and site visits. 

Why It Works for Mining

Stand-alone power systems offer critical advantages for mining operations: 

  • Reduced fuel deliveries and on-site logistics 
  • Greater reliability in remote, unpowered locations 
  • Rapid deployment and modular scalability 
  • Lower carbon footprint for ESG reporting 
  • Minimal operator intervention required 

These benefits translate to lower operating costs, improved sustainability metrics, and greater energy independence. 

Built for Mining Conditions

The ProGrid–Ningaloo approach brings together: 

Expert system design, including load simulation and power modelling

Fit-for-purpose construction from a team that understands mining operations

Full compliance with Western Australian mining and safety regulations

Post-installation support and servicing options tailored to remote operations

We understand the complexity of remote mining—limited access, strict timelines, evolving site needs. Our systems are built to meet those realities. 

If your mine or camp needs reliable, scalable, off-grid energy—get in touch.

We’ll help you plan a system that meets your energy demands today, and adapts to what comes next.
