I'm pretty sure those aren't two pole breakers rather a very lousy circuit assignment diagram. Why it provides two lines or names for each breaker is likely for those more organized or descriptive than I. Definitely a sub panel. Main service entrance likely in basement if there is one along...

Looks like you're using the current silicon monocrystalline efficiencies in your numbers. In one to two years, production tandem perovskite and silicon solar cells will be available at 30% efficiency. You'd likely go from 225W per square meter to close to 350. 50% gain in panel output as...

Or we can hope the exchange improves. Two years and it could be closer to parity if enough stimulus is created South of the border.

For a truly mobile application, the panels you recommended Crissa are indeed superior but they wouldn't be capable of true 100+kW supercharging. For ease of handling and loading into a truck I'm with you all the way. You are also correct they are only rated for 15A and 600V so you need to get...

The most economical approach is to simply install the panels at a sufficient angle that the snow slides off on a sunny day. Our frost depth can be 6 to 8 feet in most populated areas. The problem is cost and reward - you would pile a ton of money into this system to provide fractional output...

I could help you out with that if you really wanted to look into it. I have some simulation software I could run and let you know how much power you could generate in an average year. Sounds like a smaller area but if it's South facing it can be quite good in the summer up here in Canada...

It's really just not feasible with today's technology to achieve a supercharger rate of charge with a mobile solar array. That said, solar technology never could reach this level since there just isn't enough energy in terms of sunlight reaching the ground. 1000W/m2 give or take. Assuming...
