Do share.
I have an off-the-grid house, love solar, and want to see more projects self-sustaining as well.

Subject: Solar powered public art
Did someone ever do a compilation of resources regarding solar-powered artwork? I know the question has been asked before.
We’re in the early stages of an artwork that would have internal lighting, and we are exploring solar as an option for the power source. It’s not a huge power draw, but sunlight is rather unpredictable here and I am concerned about solar battery technology being up to the challenge. I have worked with solar before on an artwork but it was not the artwork’s sole power source. Trying to avoid a power hookup if at all possible, for a number of reasons.
Thanks for any advice you can offer!
