@Infoseepage @Andii @pluralistic Just make sure you have separate maximum power point trackers for each orientation of panels.
Over-provisioning panels and optimising for late afternoon is starting to be done more widely in Australia. A 5kW inverter can generally have around 6kW of panels connected as standard.

@ingram @Andii @pluralistic The ones I've seen have not had any sort of active tracking. They've been fixed installations with sturdy frames with bifacial panels in a vertical or near vertical orientation to catch the earliest possible morning rays. Most of the installs I've seen are basically looking to get some juice flowing into the battery banks after they've run low overnight and tide the person over until there's more significant midday generating capacity.
