I live in the south east of the UK. The new energy tariffs are going to slaughter me so I am looking at ways of both saving electricity and possibly generating some as well. I have my washing machine and dryer in an outbuilding so was wondering about powering these two devices using only solar energy. Obviously these are two of the biggest energy hogs in anyones house so I’m going to need a fairly beefy system in order to do this. Has anyone on here any experience of creating a separate circuit in a house that is otherwise fed by the grid? Does this sound like a feasible project? Any advice would be gratefully received.
I know roughly what kit I would need, listed below:
Solar panels (at least 2 x 330 watt)
Charge controller
Power inverter
Batteries
Washing machine specs:
Connection rating 2300W
Current (A) 13
