Need some experienced advice.
Building Tesla battery based solar system at an off grid location.
no grid power on location.
I have 2 Tesla type S modules, trying to determine if I need more.
Then how large of a solar array to power and charge, I have good roof space.
Would like to be able to generate 30 amp AC output.
I am looking into utilizing all LED DC lighting.
I am not yet full time living on this Appalachian property, am currently living in SW Florida.
Also need to be able to trickle charge an ATV, Jeep, camper, and a few other vehicle batteries while I am not on property.
I am also interested in supplementing the charging side of system with a wind generator, the roof peak is 25’ and at times gets breezy here.
Obviously, my 30 amp expectations are in anticipation of full time occupancy of the property.
I have no prior experience with alternative energy, but I am an electrician by trade.
Yes, I realize that this is a huge endeavor, and I would appreciate helpful advice and not negativity.
Believe it or not, this IS going to happen.

Of companies I have been researching, Victron seems to be the best quality, although far from cheapest.

the Quattro inverter seems that it will allow me additional supplemental sources to both power and charge.
wind.
Propane generator.
microhydroelectric. (I have a swift moving creek with a healthy amount of head 300+ feet below shop)
