What happens when it is cloudy?
Europe is going through some major problems. Servers are considered high profit per watt and even there profit margins are getting squeezed pretty hard. Imagine how bad it is for their manufacturing and heavy industries. At a time where there's excessive supply chain issues, they have to off shore because it costs too much to manufacture at home.
Peace and stability can't come soon enough, hoping for the best for EU LETers.
Not sure about the time, but we are working on that. Not sure if we will be able to place any on the roof, but we bought the land where we can build a solar plant. 1MW for a start.
We are planning to build more than e actually need. When it is cloudy or night time, we will get energy from a market.
Makes sense.
Looking forward to seeing the progress on your project.
Keep us updated.
Solar systems use a combination of over production and batteries to ensure that throughout the year, as the amount of daylight changes per day and above average weather impacts, you have enough reserve to run continuously. There's lots of solar calculators online. If you set it up properly, you forget about it for years until the batteries need replacing or maintenance.
It's your darling Musk and his fat batteries that enable larger and larger solar setups than your typical WISP solar setup. Australia reported installing these batteries in places and making their infrastructure better and saving money.
