  Here in San Luis Obispo County, the building department has been properly 
indoctrinated to allow actual power capacities of < the rated capacity of a 
hundred amp service. If the realities of off-grid power systems are 
carefully explained to the "authorities" you shouldn't have any problems. 
Shouldn't.

  I am having some issues with an inspector. He tells me we need to supply
  100A at 120vac to the house panel according to code.


  Big difference between using a 100 A panel and being required to provide 
100
  A of service.

  The size requirment is really not a problem -they are cheap. However 100 A 
of
  pv power @ 120/240 is a big deal.  I do think for an efficient household
  designed for PV, that there is language supporting lessor supply capacity.
