I am in the process of designing a system that will handle our household's entire usage - which is quite a bit. We average 115kWh per day with peaks to 135kWh on especially heavy days. The interconnection information for Duke Energy states that there is a maximum of 20kW. I have been considering something like two Sol-Ark 15kW inverters for redundancy and growth, but that would put me at 30kW in total output.
My question is whether Duke is counting the total system potential (30kW), the total system output as configured (based on my panels) or the total kW that I would be delivering back to the grid after consuming what we need (which I assume can be limited in the inverters to 20kW).
Anyone have experience with Duke?
Also to note: I am grandfathered into the current 1:1 net metering (due to a small, existing solar system) until it expires in 2027 and I have to move to something else.
