For the month of March we produced over 1.45 MWh (Megawatt hours). With the weather warming up an the sunlight being provided for longer during this season we are back over a megawatt hour of produced power once again. We are not seeing our peak produced during August but I think we should be back there very soon with the warm and sunny weather on the way. Though the frosts are not over yet, and may be a few more weeks before winter is fully gone. But it is quite soon spring will start here.

Inverters = 2x Sol-Ark 15k all-in-ones (240V)
Estimated First Year Production
7,408 kWh
Battery Backup = 48 3.2v EVE LF280 LiFePO4 280AH batteries
Battery Management system = Daly Smart BMS 16S 48V 500A
Battery Capacity = 45.696 kWh (840AH)
Propane Generator = Briggs and Stratton Power Protect 26kw
Array B production stats:
PV: 1096.6 kWh

Mounting System = Brightmount EG4 screwed into 6x6 timbers
Wiring: 2x 8 AWG 19 strand PV direct bury wire pair
Inverters = Sol-Ark 15k all-in-one (240V)
Estimated First Year Production
14,815 kWh
Battery Backup = 48 3.2v LiFePO4 290AH batteries (unknown brand)
Battery Management system = Daly Smart BMS 16S 48V 250A
Battery Capacity = 47.328 kWh (870AH)
Propane Generator = Briggs and Stratton Power Protect 22kw
Totals combined for all arrays:
1458 kWh (1.45 MWh) produced for the month of March
Extra information: This month I will be deploying a third solar array on my property, this one will have the purpose of powering a pump house. I will add it to my combined solar stats as soon as its online. Array C should have around 9 kWp of PV production power its peak.
Using another Solark 15k inverter and a Pytes V5 battery system.
190W solar panels are being used in this product.

Good evening my brother, that was really very amazing,The solar panels The ingredients used in the product are amazing❤️🙏❤️🙏
Thanks much, they are pretty cool.
You're welcome my friend ❤️🙏
Great work sir appreciate able working
Much appreciated.
Good afternoon, dear friend @solominer
It's great that spring is finally here. With better weather, you'll undoubtedly be able to produce the energy you expect.
Success in the new solar panel installation to power the pumping station.
Thank you very much for sharing these statistics.
Have a great day.
Ah thanks much.. it will be quite the project but I think we can get it all done.
Pretty impressive setup! I keep talking to my wife about getting residential solar on the house but, man, in this economy it's not easy lol.
Thanks, Yeah it is quite the investment.
Greetings brother, hey that good I am very glad for sure the time I was inactive you posted when you started with the solar panels, I had not seen this, but how good to produce energy in this way, this is a super efficient solution.
Yeah I really like using solar panels. I find collecting power from the sun is unbeatable.
Wow, that is awesome. I love how much you are expanding all of this! I'd love to be able to have a set up like that. I look forward to seeing the numbers from the expansion.
Hah yeah I guess where is it all going to stop now.. I have another upgrade coming soon after this one.. Always something to do on the farm.
It's probably just as well. Keeping busy keeps you young!
Nice work dear 👍
thank you
Welcome Sir
@tipu curate
Upvoted 👌 (Mana: 51/61) Liquid rewards.
wow thats alot of solar panel, does it have s spare battery storage called inverter incase the weather is too cloudy to power it up?
Yeah it sure does.. we can use the battery power when we want.
wow thats massive, electricity secured
In a few years, android robots will start appearing en masse. And electricity is the first thing they will need to function. Electricity prices will probably rise.
Hah lets hope not...
Woooow. This is super impressive and would come in handy for steady light supply. I don’t know how the light supply is over there but here In our country, electricity is so epileptic and solar installations is so expensive that it’s only the very financially stable can afford it. That’s a good project you have
Weldone
Thanks much, it has been a lot of work but well worth it when we are dealing with grid black outs.
Our own national grid keeps falling every other month
I think it’s more political than normal
They just look for every possible way to syphone money😂
Good to see the 'farm' is growing. I won't be getting more panels for now, but March was pretty productive for us. Lots of blue skies and the days are getting longer. I'll do my monthly update soon.
Hah yeah it sure is..
I think it should be up and up for us now through summer.
This is wonderful! I hope to place ours as much as possible by the end of the year, we are working hard for it.😁🙃
Ah nice.. hope you can get it up soon.
Wow, this is a really great improvement, solar panels are really efficient for generating your own power.
Yeah they are.. really happy to have them.
Solar panels are becoming fashionable where I live. Perhaps the future is coming?
Hah yeah I am seeing more and more of them around town as well.
The panels make so much energy man. Just gotta wish you good luck with the new panels for the pump house. Spring will help make more power
They sure do make a lot of power and soon they will make more.
this is just awesome
Good morning. Excellent.
thanks a lot
Nice stats. It's good to see the consistent production. I also had a good month at 1.7MWh. It will take another day or two for my post, I'm waiting for the Electric bill to be finalized, this may be the first month I actually overproduced and get a credit!
Yeah man it has been pretty steady, I was curious how bad winter would get with a drop in production but honestly not as bad as I thought.
Interesting, I doubt I will ever sell back to the grid but good to know others do.
The selling back to the grid paid off for us this month, and will carry over into next. Otherwise it's been saving us a lot of money each month sending extra back into the grid.
My latest Solar update with a $38 credit this month and carryover kWh for next month is here...

Woohoo!
Great Work.
thanks much
The setup is really massive! It’s impressive to read about. Quick question: what’s the price per kWh where you live?
Thanks much.. from the grid it costs about $0.12
