To All,
Once again thanks for all of the help and useful suggestions, as well as those
who contacted me directly.
Yesterday afternoon, I wrote a very long and detailed e-mail to our customer
explaining to him that we had run out of options, and that I did not think we
would be able to instal
I realize your client is set on doing this, but I installed adjusting tilt
racking on the 5 kW solar array I installed on my home over 15 years ago and I
can tell you after the first year of adjusting these heavy sections I finally
selected an average position and they have not moved in 14 years
The only system I've done with this feature, we used 2 Seas (now Iron
Ridge, it appears) racking. I guess if you can limit those racks to
being only two modules high, the weight would still be manageable. Still
not something that one person can easily adjust, though.

I so totally agree - during the winter there's not enough sun to make
a difference where we tilt the modules, and in the summer we dump
power anyway so we've set them for a nice spring/fall angle and
forgot about them for the last decade of so. The funny part is I

up] occupancy, small staff and maintenance crew for [70%] balance of the
time.
The full loads will probably be met with [1 or 2] LP gas g

correspond to the conference center use? Perhaps a hybrid system would be
prudent?
I wouldn't want to pay for that battery bank

This is a funny thread as I spend some of my time doing commercial
installs in Hawaii, where tracking and tilt adjust is definitely not
happening, and you're lucky to get the panels facing even close to
south. The rest of the time though, I'm working with off grid
customers that some may ac

I imagine you can cull some general advice from the Wrenches. Beyond that,
it sounds like you have a large design project in front of you. This is
something many of us do, for a fee.

HI Dana
First I have done a 40+kW Outback in 2003 working fine, but it is on grid. I
have a 6 pack Outback Off grid working fine. I do not have anything this big
off grid. However my Outback products have served me well. And they are
flexible, allowing many configurations. I have done some
