I have a solar system and was doing this calculation several times, also tried other people who build solar systems and understand Bitcoin mining.
if you find a way to do it without being in brutal loss, let me know. but show numbers.
with current solar systems, assuming you use everything it produces over lifetime, the cost per kWh is 6-8 cents. if you want to use batteries, the price doubles.
assuming a 3kW miner and 6 hours of peak sunshine (that's way overblown though), you need at least 12kWp of panels. that will not fit on most roofs anyway, but if you have a greenhouse or a parking lot, you can use that, along with let's say 3x3kWh batteries.
you still have not made anything for the house, just for the miner, which also costs a lot of money and if you want to see that money back, you can't not run it, the difficulty increase will kill ROI.
the professional miners get 3-4 cents per kWh and that's 24/7.
just buy Bitcoin instead of the miner and use the solar system for all your other energy needs.
p.s.: I have not talked about cooling. you need another 3kW AC unit to cool the miner.
