I am currently in process of collecting lithium cells and deciding which hardware to buy for my project. Currently we dont even have solar installed, seemed kinda a waste to not be at home all day to use it and feed the energy company power for almost nothing.
I am wondering if with the setups I am seeing on the site if they allow to feed back to the grid once the batteries are full? Not asking because of money, but because if that's the case what stops the batteries from feeding the grid?
Also I am trying to decide if to get one or two charger inverters, I am leaning towards a MMP 5048MG. If you attempt to draw more than what the 5KW inverter can supply, say 6KW, will that continue to feel 5K from the inverter and also 1K from the grid? Or do they just switch over from battery to mains for the full 6K?
And finally, with having everything installed, I know an electrician will need to install the panels and the inverters and whatever new meters are required in the powerbox but are they involved with the battery at all? I ask as I am considering having everything installed battery-less (hence the MG model) and then installing the batteries at a later date. I guess the answer would also then include if batteries are to be expanded later on.
Thanks,
David.
