Mobile ph coverage

The solar setup is very new it has 30kw of batteries and nearly 18kws of panels. It is a system we use off grid most of the time, and you can use the grid like a backup generator @($20pm) if you choose to. (But not required) plus export power on sunny days to get credits instead of bills, it happens all automatically with the flick of a switch. It is a system that you don't have to think about that comes with a decent warranty. Easily expandable, Selectronic, Fronius, BYD
