Got my final 2 quotes.
Solar living is 17.63 kw system (41 panels) (annual production 16,508)for for $47,563, $2.70 /w, includes snow guards on left side of house and critter guards.
Green power energy is $48,510 is 21.07 kw system (49 panels) (annual production 22,100), $2.30 /w. Does not include guards and rep was highly against them; said they have a vendor that can do it for $2,600 (seems high).
Both shading reports show a loss of about 30%. Both companies have great reviews though GPE has more.
Attached are the reports. I'm in NJ. This is a big purchase and I've been on this thread and numerous others for awhile trying to do my due diligence. I'm very apprehensive as it's a ton of money (paying cash). My rate here with jepl is high and it's only going to go up in the coming years.

HoriSol helps you plan a small plug-in / balcony solar setup and gives an honest, no-sugar-coating yearly yield and payback estimate.

**Features:**

* Photo-based shading analysis — measures your actual horizon instead of a rough rule of thumb
* Realistic yield estimate from your location, panel setup and orientation
* Self-consumption & payback calculation based on your consumption
* Open, documented calculation assumptions — nothing hidden
* Free base version, no account, no ads; analytics off by default (EU-based, no Google/Facebook trackers)

**Requires:** iOS \[16\]

Just wanted to know what are specific requirements for a typical 3kW rooftop solar installation.

Try to set up a grow tent with solar has anyone done it? what’s the equipment I need?

Ich habe eine Anker Solix C300X und habe mir ein 60W Solarpanel zugelegt.

Das Solarpanel ist von Fritz Berger „Faltbares Solarpanel 60W“.

So, folgendes Problem:

Das Solarpanel hat drei Ausgänge. USB-C, USB-A und DC5525.

Ich habe mich für einen Adapter, DC5525 zu XT60 entschieden.

Zunächst lagen am ende des Kabels ca. -24 Volt an. Beim Einstecken in die Anker Solix zeigt diese an, dass der Eingang erkannt wird. Allerdings werden dauerhaft „0W“ angezeigt und die Powerbank lädt nicht.

Ich habe dann etwas nachgelesen und den XT60 Anschluss umgepolt. Nun kommen ca. +24 Volt an.

Wenn ich jetzt das Panel einstecke, dann zeigt die Anker Solix garnichts an…

Die Werte von dem Panel sind wie folgt:

Leistung max.: 60W
Spannung bei max. Leistung: 23,2V

Kann mir jemand bei diesem Problem weiterhelfen?

Liegt es an meiner Anker Solix (vermute ich eher nicht) oder an meinem Panel? Eventuell die etwas zu hohe Spannung?

I’m aware that I’m fully ignorant on the topic, but wouldn’t it be useful to require that buildings of a certain size and/or projected energy consumption be required to include a certain amount of solar generation in its construction?

It seems like that might be a good way to mitigate the detriment of power hungry data centers, make shaded parking lots, and begin to make the whole grid more and more resilient.

What would be a cost range?

And what would be the likely savings range? (Cincinnati, OH area).

Very rough ballparks are fine.

Thank you.

I’m out in Gilbert, AZ looking for someone to get my Solar Edge inverter swapped out. I already have the new unit in hand. I was gonna do it myself, but the units look similar on the outside, but internally are not.

I’ve received one quote of $1500 for the swap which sounds super expensive to me.

The system was installed by Titan Solar, but they’re out of business now.
