Wow that is great that you were 70% solar in North Canada. Yes I've heard that panels can output actually more than their rated capacity when sunny & cold.
I think the big problem people have with going PV, is that there isn't a good manual on how to go solar. & much of it is changing and improving as we speak.
- jacquesm 11y agoThere may not be a manual simply because every situation is different (and it's a personal thing too), but there is a huge community of renewable energy enthusiasts at http://www.otherpower.com/ http://www.otherpower.com/ , they have a discussion board at http://www.fieldlines.com/ http://www.fieldlines.com/ . Collectively they have a huge amount of knowledge about anything related to renewables and anybody considering going off grid could do a lot worse than to become a member and to start reading forum threads. They range all the way from people interested but not actually doing anything to people operating fair sized solar and wind farms and everything in between.
