The man, identified as @bigbrovar, shared videos and photos showing the solar panels, batteries and inverters he bought.
He listed the solar devices he installed to include a 20.6 solar array, 10+6 kVA Victron Hybrid inverters, 2.25kW Deye Grid Tie Micro Inverter (AC Coupled), and 56kWh LFP Batteries.
He said the solar set up is meant to power all the electronic devices in his house.
He said:
"More on this project. It is meant to power my new location which lead to an increased energy needs - 5 AC, 3 water Heaters, an electric oven, an induction cooker, Microwave, freezers - whole shebang -All of powered from Solar. I will be sharing this journey from start to finish.
"The goal of sharing all these is to showcase how much renewable energy tech and capabilities have improved and share what a well-planned and executed off-grid solar project look like."
He said his house is on Band A and the public electricity helps to charge the solar batteries on days when there is low sunshine.
His words:
"Ironically, this new setup is the first time connected to the grid since 2018. House is on Band A but system is automated to pull limited grid power only on low-sun days. Inverters handle grid+solar blending natively, so load is powered seamlessly & less pressure on the battery."
