I have no clue where to start but I want to get a couple solar panels and power a pool pump that consumes atleast 22.08 KWH a day so is their a solar system capable. The pump runs for 12 hours a day so it may not be possible in the space we have. I done the math and it's not possible but I want to know from people with experience.
Is "Net Metering" available?
Easiest and most cost-effective solution is to connect PV panels to a grid-tie inverter (one high-voltage string inverter or multiple micro-inverters).
That will backfeed the grid and "spin the meter backwards" while sun shines. Pool pump will spin meter forward when used.
It is very doable, either grid-interactive or offgrid.
Biggest issue with off-grid is batteries and inverter have to deliver the starting surge current needed by motor, about 5x nameplate rating.
And then, batteries cycle to supply power in excess of PV or charge if PV supplies more than needed.
Batteries normally cost more than grid power over their entire lifetime, but DIY batteries are beginning to compete.
In other words, use of batteries as alternative to grid traditionally has been a money-losing proposition.
PV on the other hand is now a fraction of grid price in many locations.
22 kWh of power during summer with 5.5 hours effective sun is 4000W of PV as Snoobler says.
PV panels cost $0.12 to $0.50/watt, so $500 to $2000 worth of panels.
$500 to $2000 for grid-tie inverter.
$200 to $1000 for rack hardware to hold panels.
Batteries and battery inverter are a whole different design and cost.
Alternative could be a pump that can operate PV-direct, in variable speed. Such pumps are available for deep wells. Don't know of any off-the-shelf for pool pumps. Basically need a 3-phase pump (which I have in my pool with VFD), also a PV-direct VFD (again don't know if available off-the shelf as a stand-alone unit.)
Grundfos is the manufacturer of PV-direct well pumps.
