Then how much have they moved. I don’t do this all day, everyday for one of the largest solar companies in the US or anything.

A 5kw system at 100% efficiency ( no other loads ) is 27/5. Good luck doing that under 5 hours.

Thank you for proving that you’re estimation was wrong. Even a small system, which is significantly smaller than the 9kW average of current installations is on the low end of your estimation and a more average sized system performs obviously better.

And to reiterate, solar isn’t for everyone or every household, but disregarding distributed generation and utilizing all options for energy is a ridiculous argument.
