January 27, 20233 yr How do you provide for a frail care home that uses 133 kilowatt hours a day during the week . Most of the consumption happens during the day with very little at night. It consists of the washing of clothes and drying and ironing as well as heating of water for washing and bathing during working hours. iIt seems that in essence it means that we need a lot of solar panels and not so many batteries. Has anybody been involved in setting up a similar sort of installation. Suggestions will be welcomed.

A thorough energy audit would be needed though especially when talking these numbers
January 28, 20233 yr It depends on what you are looking at doing and how much you want to spend. Do you want to bring down the cost of electricity, or combat load shedding if you have that in your area and it is affecting the day to day running.
