Hola fellow photon pharmers.
I am in the process of expanding my storage capacity closer to 200kWh to help handle cloudy days, and am considering adding some more panels to over panel to keep my usage as clean as possible.
If I do this then there will be sunny days (weekends primarily) that I am not using the full capacity of my system and I will know this at least 12 hours in advance.
Most systems don't support this so I am trying to figure out the best way to dump power from batteries back to the grid for the benefit of the environment and the slight (50%) credit buildup on account in case I need to use the grid sometimes.
I already have the ability to produce 240v AC at 25KW from batteries, is there a good way to take that and frequency match it to the grid so I can push it back up the line? It doesn't have to be at the full rate but would need to be able to do so at least at 5KW to get enough dumped.
Thanks for any input!
