Cheap 4-life
My body is 2.63 trillion volts, .07v per cell
Agree that would be silly to have all that pv power just sitting there and couldn’t use it during a power outage or if SHTF. That’s why (as I said above) a small critical panel with just the essentials moved to it could be done. Simply using a small cheapo offgrid inverter that will rarely ever get used.. and keep a spare.. and yeah a generator with a lock out breaker or transfer switch is another optionI agree with your points, but I still think its silly not to be able to use your solar installation when the grid goes down though. Even if there is no storage, the system should always be able to use an automatic transfer switch so you can still use your system, just like a Generac generator system.
