[RE-wrenches] 1.5 MW Off Grid

[Chris Mason]

I get these requests all the time, and electricity here is very expensive.
I can't make a business case for going off-grid. We did one simulation for
a totally off-grid 4MW system where there was no grid, using diesel
generators, 400KW of PV and SMA's Fuel Save, and the PV was only able to
supply about 10% of the total electricity.
