The building’s monthly usage is 4897 Kilowatt hours. I’d like a system capable of producing 5000 KwH’s per month.
Please include sites. :) Thank you so much!

I saw this online http://sci-toys.com/scitoys/scitoys/echem/echem3.html and was wondering if I could make several of these things to charge a 12 volt deep cycle battery (from a trolling motor off a boat) than from the battery to a inverter to power a computer.
I’m not the smartest person with electricity if anyone could help me out that would be great

though you usually lose some energy in the
process.
So … what can you use energy for?
Heat your home, power your lights, run your vacuum
cleaner …
Anything that you can do with electricity can be
done with electricity that comes from solar cells.
Also, solar energy provides the energy plants
require to convert CO2 and Water into complex
sugars that they use as food (photosynthesis).
Plants are eaten by animals as food and humans
eat both plants and animals.
Indeed, changes in temperature due to solar heating
cause the wind.
Virtuall all energy on Earth comes from solar
power from the Sun (excepts are volcanic or
based on stresses within the Earth). We also
get radiation from elsewhere (background,
other stars, etc).
But the vast vast vast majority of energy you
use daily is indirectly solar.
The gas that drives your car is derived from oil
which is decomposed/rotted plants which got
their energy from the Sun.

Perhaps a specific location would assist in clarification.
