Yes I have seen people who manage with solar in Fern Forest.
The big question is will you be able to manage in Fern Forest.
Have you lived offgrid? Its a lot different than being hooked up to the power.
The usual appliances and how many you have and how much power they draw and if said high draw appliances are run at the same time.
If you want something to replace power poles, you need about a 8KW solar bank, at least 1200AH of battery storage @48V Inverters and Chargers and perhaps a backup generator in case you have too many days of clouds you could charge your batteries up.
Thats a pricy system. If you can do without or moderate your power usage to just some lights and the occasional TV use.. You can do on a LOT less
Little more cloudy on average in Fern Forest so panels wont produce as much as a sunny day.
