My installation is more for the convenience of having power during grid outages ( up to three times a day for 2 hours each ). Going from one of the best run national power utilities in the world in the 90’s ( generating more than 60% of all the electricity on the African continent ) to one of the worst , thanks to our wonderful government. Here in sunny South Africa you are required to install a bi-directional power meter at your cost ( about $US 600 ) and you are not allowed to export more than your average yearly usage / year. So what is the point in exporting to the grid ?
