i wonder, what concrete energy consumption the "mesh potato" will
perform under different situations, what buffer battery will be the
best, and following these data, what solar paneel would fit best.

Hi,

The Mesh Potato consumes about 2W idle and about 2.5W active. Have a
look at this thread for the fairly detailed discussion of solar +
battery options:
