Re: No Backup Gen?

Wouldn't you be better off with Solar and a Battery (11kWh) backup rather than a generator?

Properly installed it adds value to the property.

I have this very setup now. I've just installed an EV charger that integrates with the solar and on a sunny day, takes just the energy produced by the PV system and puts it into my car.

I can run the house for 2 days on the battery. In the future, V2H and V2G will allow for even longer grid outages. no smelly and noisy gensets here
