Only if they are on automated multi axis trackers.A simple 1.2KW off-grid solar power system includes one CyboInverter H model and four 250W to 300W solar panels. In most areas, it can generate about 5KWh to 8KWh usable solar energy daily
For a fixed PV array then you will be doing well if you can get over 4 kWh/day per kW of PV, on average, over a year. Less output in winter, more in Summer.
Depending on how well insulated the tank is, you'll need ~ 2kWh/day just to cover heat losses. That doesn't leave much spare for consumption energy and it's Winter production you'll need to consider, not Summer.
If this water is for personal use (bathroom, kitchen, showers) or you expect to be exposed to it in some other way then you absolutely do not want to under egg the power supply.I want it to heat water in my electric water heater with a 4500w element.
Keeping water lukewarm for long periods comes with significant risk of legionella bacteria growing. It is deadly. Absolutely you need to ensure water in storage is heated to 140°F on a regular basis (at least once every few days).
