I posted several months ago about trying to get thoughts on a solar setup on my roof. Issue is the place is a castle and the roof is crazy. Everyone said looks like a nice roof for a ground array. lol Now I'm looking at that. One of the many installers who contacted me told me I can only do up to a 25kW system. With some searching I see "limited to the maximum system size cap of 25 kW DC for residential installations ". I'm not sure if this is just a NY thing but what's the deal? We don't even have electric cars yet and use more energy than a 25kW system will deliver. We have plenty of sunlit lawn just asking for panels. Is there any way around this? Should I simply setup a 25kW system, get the incentives, inspection, etc etc etc and then a few months after everything is said and done simply add more panels to the system? lol As I have a building company I'm planning on doing the install myself anyway. I'm figuring a single axis long ground array mount. My calculations put me at needing, once cars are involved, a 45kW system. Thoughts?
Thank you!
