I'm not in TV but have installed a system on my home here. I started it as a backup plan for when power was out or hurricanes. Gradually added to it up to the 1K (kilowatt) I currently have. With that I can power my refrigerator or small window ac and easily all lights or tv (as in television!) and sound equipment. Prices have come way down since I started. Best to compare price per watt. I started paying about $7.50 per watt and have seen them lately around $2.50 so it is getting much more economical. You have to decide whether to have a stand alone system using storage batteries plus controller and inverter or grid tie (less costly outlay), where you sell unused power back to the electric company. Different states allow companies to pay different rates. Some states require the power company to pay you full retail where others might pay only 1/4 of retail. There is an online site that has that info.
I presume TV will allow them. I plan on bringing my system when I get there. Good question to ask. Anybody know?
