I'm looking into off-grid solar charging for my FFE, and I'd like to know if anyone has experience with that. I live in a condo complex and would need to trench 150 feet to run the electricity from my electrical panel to the Level 2 charging station at my carport. There isn't a closer location I can tie in to, so this is the best bet for a traditional installation. It's an expensive proposition and one that would be permanent, even if I were to sell the condo one day.
So, I'm looking into whether off-grid solar would be viable. I could put the PV panels on the carport roof, and I live in Palm Springs, CA, where there's plenty of sun. Because I'm away during the day, I'd have to be charging a battery from the PV panels and then charge the car from the battery.
Any thoughts and experience on this scenario will be most appreciated.
Thank you.
