Peter’s story follows his practical approach to off-grid living on a bush block in Wide Bay, Queensland, where he powers his sheds, workshop, and developing butcher space independently from the main house. Starting with a simple solar setup, he gradually upgraded to a larger system featuring a 16 kW solar array and battery storage, providing reliable energy for tools, refrigeration, and daily use. The system allows flexibility for future expansion and lifestyle changes, giving Peter greater control, reduced reliance on the grid, and the confidence to grow his projects and hobbies at his own pace.
