    This document summarizes the sizing calculations for various components of an off-grid solar power system. It calculates that the inverter should be rated for 15W based on the maximum power load of 12W and a safety factor of 1.25. The battery bank size is determined to be 46.88 kWh based on a two day autonomy at a depth of discharge of 80%. This equates to needing 3.91Ah of battery capacity. Finally, a 6.5W solar panel array is calculated as sufficient based on the daily energy load and specifications for the location.
