Hey all,
I'm about to pull the trigger on purchasing $37,859 worth of solar equipment for a whole system consisting of:
60kWh battery storage
24kw of panels
3 inverters
etc (all the other things)
The intent is for a fully off-grid large cabin in the woods (new construction). I've done the math with all the electricity usage and this should give 1 full day of autonomy.
The ROI/break-even point for this system (after US tax credit) is ~9 years, but I'm mainly optimizing for a fully off-grid capable place to live for years and years.
Am I crazy to go for this rather than connect to the grid?
