24/48V DC to 120/240V AC inverter?
I'm toying with the idea of getting an electric car. However, electricity in Ontario is so expensive I suspect electric is more expensive than gasoline. All the talk of solar and inverters in this ...

Power wall makes no financial sense if you have lots of space.
8 12 volt 105 pound telecom tower "take out" jars have the same usable capacity as the power wall and cost about $125 each plus tax.
There are plenty of 240 volt 60 cycle output inverters. Some of them are hybrid units.
Outback makes stackable units so you could start small and grow the system over a period of time.
Cost of running an electric car is about 1/4 of using gasoline. What does cost is the initial purchase price.
Ontario used to have a great "buy back" power scheme for grid tied solar. Unless you insist on redundancy (i.e. power during outages) that is going to be the cheapest route to follow, with a small grid tied inverter on each panel. Again that means you can add modules over a period of time (even years).
