In remote or complex locations, the lack of access to water and electricity is a major operational challenge. In practical terms, this can slow down deployment, increase installation costs and cause service interruptions. This article presents self-sufficiency options tailored to real-world conditions. At Ozero Solutions, each project is designed to maintain reliable operation, even without traditional infrastructure.
Without electricity
When the electrical grid is not available, the goal is to maintain stable operating capacity.
-
The use of gasoline-powered pressure washers, combined with diesel or propane burners, allows operation without dependence on the grid.
-
These configurations are generally deployed in non-self-service environments, while ensuring continuity of operations.
-
Low-energy components can be powered by solar panels or a generator, reducing the site's overall energy dependence.
Without a water network
When there is no water supply network, the goal is to stabilise availability and flow.
Two approaches are common depending on the context:
-
Pump water from a natural source (e.g. lake), then store it in a tank or reservoir, with an advanced filtration system to ensure quality.
-
Installing a 1,000 to 2,000 litre tank, periodically supplied by tanker truck, in coordination with a specialised supplier.
Reliability: sensors, alarms and recirculation
Autonomy must also reduce the risk of shutdowns and protect equipment.
-
Low-level sensors protect pumps by preventing dry running.
-
An alarm system facilitates preventive intervention in the event of a critical threshold being reached.
-
A recirculation system allows water from washing to be recovered, filtered and reinjected into the system, reducing consumption.
