[quote="George Marsh"](quoted from post at 13:04:38 08/06/14) Jennifer,
How much would I have to invest to produce 4,500,000 kw-hrs of energy during the winter months? Where I live we are lucky to 8 hours of useable sun light in the winter and half of those days are cloudy.
I don't want to invest gas powered generators. My system must be able to start a 5 hp air compressor, a 13 inch wood planner, 3/4 hp well, a 220v 225 amp welder, a 3 ton A/C, a 220v electric range(50amp), many electric baseboard heaters, and 5500 watt water heater. So the short of it, I want to replace my 200 amp 220v service, without changing a thing. How much will it cost so I can tell my not so gready power company to disconnect me?
I really don't mind spending a fixed $135 a month for what I have. My bill is fixed, not averaged. Fixed for the next 12 months, it's $135/mo PERIOD.
George[/quot]I would stick with it.
You won't be able to beat that in a million years with going off the grid....PERIOD
