Is this doable? I have an off grid property and one area gets good sun, the rest doesn't. But I built our cabin 500-700 feet away from this good solar location and we have another cabin we're gonna build on a different part of the property that's also about 500 feet from the good sun location. I'm wondering...
Could I build a large ground mount solar array in the good sun spot, then trench 4/0 wire (whatever) to location A and also trench another wire from the solar array to location B and have the solar array know which location needs the energy the most and send it on the appropriate line?
Location A and location B would have their own MPPTs, inverter/charger, and battery bank. Would like the array to send the power to whichever location has the lowest battery bank level or highest current power demand. Are there any devices geared toward this kind of use?
Many thanks for any help!
