So I've been looking at properties out in Montana and because I work for a living the only things I can find are all off-grid with estimates over $1 million for grid, so no.
The goal would be to provide a full normal 200a power supply to the property via stacked inverters for the least amount of money. I'm thinking of a 40ft container along the lines of what Ambition Strikes did for their solar power center, so space isn't really a concern. Here's my rough numbers thinking:
EG4-6000xp provides 25a @ 240v for about $1500 x 8 units = $11,200 for 200a (includes breakers)
EG4 18k provides 50a @ 240v for about $5000 x 4 units = $20,000 for 200a
NHX 10kw provides 40a @ 240v for about $2200 x 5 units = $11,000 for 200a
So since wall space isn't really an issue, the EG4 seems to be the sweet spot for getting 200a of off grid power. Many of the other brands are significantly more expensive so I didn't bother throwing them in the list.
Am I missing something in my math?
