I want to run a Servel gas/electric refridgerator off of solor power

Hi all
I am new to all this.
I have a hunting cabin that I run all lights, heat, stove , fridge off of propane. The fridge uses the majority of the gas and gets expensive to run each year.
What all would I need to run the appliance ( the fridge )
off of a solar system. the fridge will run off of 110 ac power

Thanks for the help

A lot!
This may not be what you want to here but, it would be wiser to spend the money that would be needed to power that Servel with a large PV array, battery bank and, inverter on a more efficient fridge made for running off of PV.

Another alternative might be to run a bio-digester.

 heres a freezer turned into a fridge that uses just 3kwh per month! thats as much as mine would use in only one day.
