The basics of Plug In Grid Tie Inverters. This is a special type of inverter which
enables you to dispense with the battery and charge regulator,
as all power produced is fed back into the mains wiring of your
house and then, if it is not used by you, it is exported to the
grid. This is becoming a very popular choice
for renewable energy enthusiasts. Effectively, you use the
electricity grid as a
large battery and when you are not using your own power,
it is exported for others to use. You can be paid for this exported power
and most electricity suppliers have a buy back micro-generation
tariff. People who have large solar PV or wind turbine systems
installed at their homes almost always have this type of system,
as it is very reliable and can be a good selling point for the
house. There are, however, some very effective
small grid-tie invertors
available these days, which are ideal for low power
systems. All grid tie inverters , should be certified and
installed by a competent, electrician, but they could easily
added by an inteligent person. Make sure you choose the correct type
of grid tie inverter, depending whether you are using solar or
wind. |
