Hi,
I have been researching a solar charging system for a big garage where I would like to use lights, power tools and a dehumidifier. I am planning the following and would be interested in your opinions:
6 X Suntech 250W panels. Total 1500W. Output per day approx 4500WattHours
2 X Varta 230AH batteries. Total 460AH
Outback 12V 2000W pure sine wave inverter
Outback FM80 charge controller
The charge controller and inverter I hope are big spec enough that if I want to add batteries and panels in future I can.
The roof is 56sqm.
The cost will be around £3,600.
UK Power Networks quote to connect to the mains was £10,000!!!
Any thoughts and suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks all,
Charlie
