Ubud is the most technically interesting place we work. The villas climbing the ridges around Penestanan, Sayan and Tegallalang sit under exactly the canopy that makes the area beautiful — and shading analysis here is not a formality, it decides whether a project makes sense at all. The grid is the other variable: properties at the end of long rural feeders toward Tegallalang or Payangan get brownouts and outages that the centre of town never sees, and some land beyond the rice terraces has no PLN connection at all. Ubud is where we design our most genuinely off-grid systems, and also where we most often tell someone honestly that their roof is too shaded and solar is not their answer.
What We Install Most in Ubud
Off-Grid Systems
Jungle land without PLN — full solar-battery-generator independence, sized for the wettest month. Full details →
System Design & Shading Analysis
Under canopy, the survey is everything. We map sun hours across your site before recommending anything. Full details →
Hybrid Systems
End-of-feeder villas with weekly brownouts — a battery turns grid roulette into a non-event. Full details →
Solar Water Heaters
Even partly shaded Ubud roofs heat water well — often the best first step here. Full details →
Solar Under the Canopy
Photovoltaics hate partial shade — one branch across a string at 10 a.m. costs disproportionately more than intuition suggests — so an honest Ubud design starts with a day-long shading map, not a panel count. Sometimes the answer is a smaller array on the one clear roof plane with microinverter-style optimisation; sometimes it is panels on a garage or ground mount in the garden clearing instead of the villa roof; occasionally it is "your site cannot do this well, save your money", which we say plainly. For Ubud's eco-resorts the calculus is reputational as much as financial: guests increasingly check whether the sustainability page matches reality, and a visible, working array with monitoring data answers that. Where the grid is weak or absent — common toward Denpasar's opposite extreme on rural feeders — our off-grid designs with two days of battery autonomy carry properties through wet-season weeks PLN never could. Every Ubud project begins with the design service; under canopy, measurement beats optimism.
