Not really sure where to start, but I like DIY and have setup small system to run 240vac fridges etc at our caravan site.
SO I know enough to be dangerous but do have access to a couple of electricians for help.
Usage is 22,700KW per year - so that mean 62kw daily average.
Winter peak is 73kw and summer is down to 48kw.
Power in NZ is a rip off and we constantly are paying about $500 - $600+
Just thinking .... but would a 60kw system be feasible?
455w panels / 60kw = 131 panels - that is huge.... (60000w / 455 w= 131 panels - is this correct, seems to simple...
I would like to mound the panels on the ground... this is about 100m from where the inverter would be mounted.
I like batteries..... I like to solar it is such a great thing.
One of the main things I like is having this system installed and paid for in about 10yrs.... so when we retire we have a much smaller power bill.
Any advice appreciated.
