Also note that energy management involves knowing what loads operate when and intervening when needed. You need meters, timers, smart switches, etc.

Hi All,
I am looking at going hybrid solar, Ideally I would like to run my entire household besides my geyser on solar power during day time and on battery power at night with the security of the grid should I run out of battery in the winter time. Grid will power Geyser that will be put on timer to have as little usage as possible. My highest usage in the last 2years were 750kwh for the month and we average around 700kwh, so more or less 25kwh per day. Plan is to start with a 5kva dual mppt inverter, 5kwh battery and 8x 450w panels. Will expand in future by adding additional battery capacity and panels if needed. Will this be sufficient to start with, which brands to get and what must I avoid.
Hopefully my explanation makes sense.
Thanks in advance.
