We have one utility in New England who has approved this. We've used it a couple of times and it works great.
The big problem is most utilities won't let you do a tap in the meter box.

The $1100 (list) Schneider RC2M200S lets you do a 200A main and a 50A PV breaker (interconnecting on line side of the 200A), which may be close enough for you depending on your system details (10kWac @ 240V -> >52.1A breaker).
