What You Need to Know
Description:
My system is split into two parts: grid-tie with battery backup for half the solar modules; and microinverters with grid-tie only for the other half.
My Motivation:
I started with a grid-tie battery backup system and then after measuring my electrical use for a year I added the microinverters in order to get to Net-Zero energy building.
