Aloha,

...and a sunny 12 hour day of full production,

This is completely unrealistic globally.

A more reasonable scenario of 6-8 hours of sun for only part of the
year still looks really good financially.

This is realistic for a fair portion of the Southwest in the USA - for spring through fall only, not for winter (Nov-Jan). Not realistic for anywhere else in North America except some areas in summer only.

cheers,
John S.
