Wrenches,
I have been asked about sizing PV systems for a couple different music
festivals that have been run solely off of generators in the past.
The problem i'm having is determining the energy consumption of
music/stage (amps, speakers, lights, etc...?) loads as well as
concession. The organizers have never considered the kwh of
electricity used and it has never been metered. I believe the
attendance of one festival is expected to be in the range of 5000 and
the other closer to 15000 over the course of a weekend.
Do any of you have any experiences in this area? How were the loads
determined?
No doubt that generator back-up will still be needed, to what extent,
will be determined. So what we're looking at would be a temporary
off-grid PV system with generator back-up...
Any suggestions on how to proceed with this one?

I think it's just the kind of thing you're looking for.
