I've had solar on my roof since 2012. 11kW system which over produces anywhere between 1500-2000 kWhr per year. Our solar anniversary date with our utility is at the beginning of March and each year they pay out our 'bank' at a piddly rate of maybe .02/ kW. The system is a pre-paid lease from SunPower, so we can't make any changes to it unless we buy them out. Don't really want to do that.
Now that I have a M3, I won't be having this over-production situation. Got the car in November and we've just run out of 'bank'. I'm wondering if I can install another smaller array that stores directly into a battery that I can use to do DC charging to the M3. I called my installer and a few other local companies, but they don't want to deal with anything that has an existing array. I haven't been able to find anything on the interwebs. Maybe I'm not searching correctly. Anyone doing something similar?
