more than solar, smarter than off-grid.
⚡ The Microgrid, Reinvented.
Lugh Microgrid offers a modular, scalable energy solution that empowers businesses to take control of their power generation — without waiting on grid upgrades, permits, or compliance testing.
While traditional solar installs are held back by outdated grid infrastructure and export limits, a Lugh-connected microgrid bypasses the red tape, enabling you to install 5x more generation — instantly.
Our modular microgrid platform blends renewable generation, energy storage, and advanced control — and it’s already powering agriculture, industry, data centres and more across the UK and Ireland.
Why wait years for grid upgrades when you can install today?
With Lugh, you retain grid connection but eliminate grid dependency. You generate what you need, when you need it — from solar, wind, battery storage, or biogas — all without compliance testing or DNO approval.
Most systems are designed for the grid.
Ours are designed for your site.
At Lugh, we don’t just install panels and batteries. We deliver integrated, grid-connected microgrids that optimise performance, simplify compliance, and maximise ROI.
Our expertise spans hardware, software, grid engineering, and sustainability reporting. From design to commissioning, everything is managed in-house — ensuring speed, reliability, and full accountability.

Let’s break it down
| ⚙️ Feature | 🔋 PV + Battery Only | 🏡 Grid-Connected Microgrid | 🏝️ Off-Grid Microgrid |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🔌 Grid Connection | ✅ Required – relies on export/import | ✅ Connected – used as backup or balance | ❌ None – operates independently |
| 🧠 Control System | ❌ None – inverter logic only | ✅ Full EMS with Lugh View | ✅ Full EMS with Lugh View |
| 📦 Generation Flexibility | ❌ Solar only (or basic battery scheduling) | ✅ Solar + Wind + Diesel/Backup + Battery | ✅ Solar + Wind + Diesel/Backup + Battery |
| 🛡 Backup Resilience | ⚠️ Limited to battery discharge | ✅ Grid and generator fallback | ✅ Generator and storage fallback |
| ⛽ Generator Integration | ❌ Not included | ✅ Optional and smart-controlled | ✅ Required and fully integrated |
| 📡 Monitoring | ⚠️ Inverter app only | ✅ Lugh View EMS with Scope 1 & 2 reporting | ✅ Lugh View EMS with Scope 1 & 2 reporting |
| 💸 Upfront Cost | 💸 Lower (limited capability) | 💸 Medium – cost vs value balanced | 💸💸 Higher – full autonomy required |
| 📈 ROI Timeline | 📉 Variable – export uncertainty | 📉 Strong – faster payback from blending | ⏳ Longer – but essential in remote sites |
| ⚡ Grid Reinforcement Costs | ⚠️ Often triggered by export; upgrades may take 3–5 years | ✅ Often avoided due to non-export design | ✅ Not applicable – no grid involved |
| 🚧 Delivery Timeline | 🕒 9+ months typical due to G99 delays; longer if reinforcement needed | ⚡ 8–12 weeks – no DNO export approval required | ⛺ 10–14 weeks – off-grid design + logistics |
In 100 seconds, this below will show you how your business can harness wind, PV, AD, Battery, or Biogas generation to become 100% energy independent, without the need for compliance testing and delays, investing in your energy security, and the future of your business.
