Soooooo ... our home has a 200 amp service panel (power available 24/7 of course).
About how much solar paneling would need to be installed to equal this capacity for our home's location in coastal (i.e. some fog in the mornings and many clouds during the winter) central California?
I'll bet a lot ... and I mean for a simple system that merely feeds the existng grid ... as opposed to a full blown off-grid system with huge inverter and battery capacity.
By the way and FWIW, in how many locations in CA and other states will a newly built residence pass final building inspection when NOT connected to a public utility system?
As an aside and as I hinted at in earlier post - for the world to be all/mostly electricity powered we'll probably have to be much closer to a Type 1 civilization: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale
