Here is a comprehensive tutorial on solar power installations for RV's. It includes a short section on solar and residential refrigerators. Just scroll about halfway down the article.

If you don't want to checkout the website, here is a summary of what the author says about residential fridges and boondocking:
"If you plan to boondock a lot, and you don’t want to run your generator 24/7, be prepared to outfit your rig with over 1,000 watts of solar panels and close to 1,000 amp-hours of battery capacity to power a residential refrigerator."
This is one of the most absurd quotes/statements I have seen in a long time.
