How to Connect Solar Panels to the National Grid | UKPower
Connecting your solar PV system to the grid allows you to take advantage of the FIT, which gives you a fixed amount of money for each kWh of electricity you generate. On top of these payments for energy generation, you also receive a sum of money for feeding any surplus energy into the grid.
How A Solar Inverter Synchronizes With The Grid: Complete Guide
Correctly configured, a grid-tie inverter allows a home owner to use an alternative power generation system such as solar or wind energy, but without rewiring or batteries. In this situation, a grid-tie inverter, which is actually an AC inverter, allows the solar power generated by the solar panels to convert into useable AC power.
