The 9 panels I suggested would only work with a 200V or 600V charge controller. Or all panels in parallel for 60V.
Any even number would be good for 100V.
You need to determine watt hours to run a machine cycle, continuous watts while running, and surge watts to start a motor.
Then you can select battery size and inverter.
PV/battery backup is nice during grid outages. You just have to design it and size it for your loads.
Mine is huge (except relatively small battery), runs A/C and everything during daylight.
