Recent Installations

Real systems we've built and run in Northern Ontario: off-grid compounds, commercial sites and homes, from the battery room to the roof.

The site

A remote property with a home, bunkhouse, shop and garages, and no utility connection, so every kilowatt-hour is made on site. Four rooftop arrays feed a seven-inverter stack and a battery room sized to carry the property through long northern winters. Two standby generators back everything up, and Starlink keeps the site connected.

What Honey Bee Solar does here

  • Expanded the battery bank from 48 to 60 modules, with manufacturer-approved 12-high stacks
  • Rewired and documented each roof array (string mapping, megger testing, per-array single-line drawings)
  • Prepared the ESA plan-review package: system SLDs, battery-capacity review and equipment documentation
  • Designed generator automation: selection between the indoor and outdoor units, plus an automatic bypass if the inverter stack faults
  • Installing HiveGuard monitoring with a text alert if a generator is called and fails to start, on the owner's in-wall iPads and phones
  • Manage the system remotely and work directly with the inverter and battery manufacturers on support

Phase 2

About 33 kW of new ground-mount and solar-fence arrays to fill the stack's seven remaining MPPT inputs, fed by aluminium TECK home runs sized for CSA voltage-drop limits.
