An average, efficient fridge will consume about 1 - 2 KWh per day.
Do you get cloudy days? weeks ?

Using solar to power a refrigerator is probably the most difficult/expensive with the least payback thing in solar.
Unless you are replacing a propane fridge. Then it is very cost effective.

, Are you interested in operating cost savings? If so, it is very hard to make a financial case for solar vs. grid power. I would assume that you are looking for some level of autonomy when grid power goes down?
I always have more questions than answers. That's the nature of life.
