1. http://www.oregon.gov/energy/renew/solar/docs/pvbasics.pdf Basic DC solar PV system

2. Energy Needs Total process energy = 19.3 MJ + inefficiencies Total process power = 300 W + inefficiencies

3. PV components Panels – need ~500 Watts Charge Controller – 12V at 50 Amps Deep Cycle Battery –12V ~35 Ah

4. Charge Controller

6. Total Cost PV panels = $440 plus shipping? Charge Controller = $87 Deep Cycle Battery = $65 + shipping Wiring (estimated) = $20 Total cost = $612

8. Notes/comments This will take 2 days to complete process Do we need a PV panel(s) that outputs 12V or will any voltage work (compatible with charge controller?)
