Very nice looking setup.
About how much power is that pushing around?

Just over 45KW of solar comes into that wall.   Only about 18000 watts of that hits the batteries though the rest of it gets dropped into an Electric water heating system.

You have a lot of PV and water heating, what are you running with all this? Some sort of retreat or farm factory?
Obviously there is a huge investment in it all, interesting to know what it's all used for.

The system was built to support my house, shop, garage, barn. I bought a small ranch several miles from any power line.  And after getting a quote from the local power company for nearly 300K and several hundred a month of extras, I begin work on the system.

I started with 1500watts of panels and 2 outback inverters.   And just slowly built it up over time.
