I do not see anything that will take your breath away in the engineering of this system. It is just a bunch of solar panels mounted to a cabinet that has batteries in it.
The same basic system has been around for many years. Readers of Home Power Magazine have seen systems much better than this one described by their owners in reports that are published by Home Power Magazine.
Panel prices have come down a lot in the past 5 years. You can buy a 5KW system for a home roof for little more than $6,000, and rack system, 5,500 watt grid tied solar inverter for about $2,500.
Much smaller systems like described above have been installed in Africa, where they can be installed, expanded to meet the village needs, and upgraded as more people buy rechargeable flashlights, install LED lamps in their homes, and even some 10 - 15 watt LED street lights are installed in the village!
