Stop in for a cup of coffee

So appealing to the collective coffee brain trust. Do any of you utilize solar at your residence? I am looking at putting solar on our well pump. I know Jack diddly about solar.
One thing to think of...........................power outage.

We have a whole house generator for backup power and our water heaters and well pump are on that. Can you still do that if it is on solar??? I don't know, but something to consider.
