The grid-connected PV systems are assembled to function in analogous to that of the electricity utility grid. The PV power systems are electrically designed in two ways, i.e., system with a utility power grid having no battery backup (Fig. 4.3) and the other system having battery backup as shown in Fig. 4.4. The second type of system is ...
Solar Plus Storage. Since solar energy can only be generated when the sun is shining, the ability to store solar energy for later use is important: It helps to keep the balance between electricity generation and demand. This means that developing batteries or thermal storage is key to adding more solar. Grid Resilience and Reliability

Net metering is an arrangement between solar energy system owners and utilities in which the system owners are compensated for any solar power generation that is exported to the electricity grid. The name derives from the 1990s, when the electric meter simply ran backwards when power was being exported, but it is rarely that simple today.
