Sustainable Energy Strategy | Off-Grid Ham Radio Station

A sustainable energy strategy is essential to any ham radio station operating off-grid or during a grid down. Let's take a look at my station.
Let's go through how this stations solar power, battery backups, and other renewable sources to keep communications up and running in any situation.
It has been a long road, but the off-grid solar-powered ham radio station is now 100% energy-self-reliant. This means the power supply for my ham radio station will remain unaffected by any pause or failure of the electric power grid. It has taken some time to develop an effective grid-down energy strategy. Today, the station acting as a TOC (Tactical Operations Center, can stay in the fight during a prolonged grid-down disaster.
