Hello everyone! My apologies if this has been beat to death already....
I'm planning out my end goal system currently. The plan is to have a fully functional scalable solar system in the near future. I'm on a budget so I need to build this in stages. I can afford to buy stuff as money comes available but I'm not going into debt to do this.end goal is around 12 to 15kw.
Currently running on a Honda 3000i converted to propane. Big propane tank just got installed so I'm pretty stoked about not screwing around with 30 pound tanks or gas cans anymore.
Next step is the inverter / battery set up. Plan is to use the generator to charge until panels can be bought and installed.
I'm not sure yet if I prefer an all in one charger inverter with solar capability or stand alone components. All in one there seems to be lots of options.
For individual components, I seem to be struggling with invertor options. My minimum start point will be 4kw. I will want split phase, or be able to parallel units. Parallel option is must so I can scale this up over time. Do dedicated inverters exist in this configuration? Any recommendations?
Thanks!
