what to do with toms solar array

TA Tom Allen Public Seen by 146

i have a 3kw solar array and 3kw inverter setup with 9kwh of batteries. this all fits in my caravan which i would bring anyway so is not increasing emissions much by bringing it. i also have a bunch of LED festoon lights and flood lights. what is the best use of this ?

Providing light and power at gate would be very useful. It would replace the lighting tower and generator we currently use. All assuming similar layout next year.

so far that seems like the best way to reduce emissions over all (and save some money), would be ideal for me if my new camp could get the spot nearest gate then so i could power my camp too. don't want to move crumpet but cables will only run so far.

i was thinking during build and strike we could run the whole site off this and only use generator in event time? @nathanfinkel suggested this already i think
