RE: Weekend after Weekend and annual Solar Report

Most power companies have pretty strict rules and registration required. Part of it for safety I suppose so their guys don't get hit with unexpected power streams during outages and break/fix. I suppose other is them just trying to keep control. Buy a few new panels for hookup and approvals, and likely easy to add the older panels to it later if desired to bump the production up. The Solar company we bought ours through did all the Power company and HOA approvals for us, so almost transparent from my side, and very glad they did it instead of me.

Luckily I don't have to ask permission from anyone to do off-grid setups. I am on a good bit of private property. The business admin for the power coop basically told me how to get around everything. I lived on 12V for 4 years while living in a van and had time to figure out and plan this now that my roots are set, lol. I will use all the power so I am not even concerned, lol.
Edit: yeah, they say it's for 'efficiency' for the grid, but no, it's all about control. Plus I wouldn't get back much of anything as far as credits, so I might as well just use it all and mine some clean, free, crypto, lol.
