Living off-grid can bring to mind moving to the country... but the 'country' has it challenges so why not transform my city home to be off-grid capable? Water via rain-harvest (20,000g/year), Solar power to run a 100% electrified home (15,000kwh/year). Wood based heat (unfortunately) is not an easy option - and winter months are not enough power - not sure how to overcome this yet.
The Solar power design goal is to consume all that is produced. Its an ongoing, off-grid, power production focus. I'll use later posts to show details/pics. If there's additional metrics you're interested in, let me know and I can add here or share.
Power / Water:
Powerwall Cycles / DOD / Operating Range:
Powerwall Detail - 52v@260ah = 13.5kwh per battery x 8 batteries = 108kwh Powerwall
2023 Goals
* Another 2,850kw of PV (10 * 285w panels)
* Expand the powerwall - battery #9
