On our boat[1] we have deployable solar that we need to take down every time it gets windy so I'm quite familiar with the process.

Plan it and it won't be a huge deal.

That said, I'm sure there are spots on this planet where solar isn't the best renewable option. Maybe small-scale wind power would be better where you are? On our boat we have both (and hydro for when we're sailing). Sadly these mechanical generators haven't yet received similar scale effects to their price as solar has.
