Inverter can probably be programmed for a maximum wattage to stay under 80% of whatever breaker you do install; power output could be clipped during peak hours of days with best sun.
PV array if divided for multiple orientations can spread kWh over more hours with lower peak kW. e.g. some at 10:00 AM sun and some at 4:00 PM sun, 6 hours or 90 degrees apart, should reduce peak to about 0.7x as much.
Plan for where you might add battery backup. It can serve as UPS for a critical loads panel, and can backfeed main panel through an interlocked breaker adjacent to main breaker.
