I get all that because I have panels and a net metering plan with Duke Power. As I said it depends on whether your utility supports what you want to do. Clearly, YMMV.
I personally could do exactly as I described. If I had an EV that needed charging regularly, I could put up a ground based array of microinverter 120VAC output arrays, and add to them pretty much at will. If I over produced then Duke would bank it. In the billing month that contains May 31 they would zero out any bank I had developed. I could live with that. <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> Virus-free. www.avg.com <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2> On Sat, Jul 13, 2019 at 7:06 PM Mr. Sharkey via EV <[email protected]> wrote: > >>We're going back to the way intertie started off decades ago.
