Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them

  Again I ask, if there is no permit, how will the utilities know you are in compliance with this law?

    You are required to notify your utilities that you’ll be operating a direct plugged small solar PV installation, that’s it. They can’t forbid you from doing this.

    The utilities don’t monitor compliance, the manufacturer is.

      So it sounds like you’re saying there is no way? And therein lies the problem.

        The certification on the product shows that it’s safe to use in grid-tie. What the fuck are you on about? Are you just being intentionally an obtuse pain in the ass?

        By now over 1.2 million people in Germany have registered (and even more have not registered) their legal small scale solar system and are producing their own electricity (mine covers 2/3rds of my total demand).

        If you think that’s a problem, be my guest.
