Microinverters that are currentlly available require grid tie to function, or
some source of good AC to feed into. My garage and shop system is off grid and
charges the Leaf in addition to running other stuff, but it has a seperate 1500
amp hour 24 volt battery that is charged by solar and wind. I can charge the
Leaf at up to 4 kw due to the size of my inverter. There is currently no
simple way to do what you are thinking of.

Subject: [EVDL] Solar off grid with an EV?
Message-ID: <[email protected]>

Hi all,
Would it be possible to hook a small solar panel system to an EV and use the EV
as the battery storage for an off grid solar system? What would be needed to
make that happen? I envision solar panels connected to microinverters which
would then charge the EV. Then if you needed power at night, you could use
some power from the EV. Would that work? Would you need another part to that
puzzle to get it to work? Would it cause problems for the EV?
I am not looking to do this myself but we had a guy come and charge his Tesla
at our place. He has a lot and camper where he goes camping and would like to
install solar and be off grid. I was just wondering what that setup would look
like.
Mark.
