I have a property with a beautiful southern facing slope that gets as many beautiful sun hours as possible all through the season. we sketched this up thinking it would best take advantage of the sun. thoughts? only downside i can think of is that it could possibly be challenging to get the air moving properly in there. but in regards to the sun... its 50 wide, 60 long, 16 high at the peak and 8 foot side walls

yeah, i think i can make my own ridge vent at the top pretty easy. i have a big ass diesel generator so i can power some decent size fans, no need for solar. i've been under the impression that theres no way im moving that much air with solar unless its a pretty big array of panels.
