6 FAQs about [Solar power generation grid connection requires acceptance]
Can a solar PV system be connected to the National Grid?
While it is possible to have a solar PV system that is not connected to the National Grid, choosing not to connect means missing out on potentially lucrative incentive schemes like the government's Feed-In Tariff (FIT). Here is a list of FAQs on connecting to the National Grid.
Why should a solar PV system be connected to the grid?
For financial benefit. Connecting your solar PV system to the grid allows you to take advantage of the FIT, which gives you a fixed amount of money for each kWh of electricity you generate. On top of these payments for energy generation, you also receive a sum of money for feeding any surplus energy into the grid.
Do I need permission to supply energy to the grid?
For larger systems (anything above a 3.68kW output), the DNO needs to give permission before you can start supplying energy to the grid. They will investigate whether the grid in your area can handle the extra energy that your system generates, and will identify any improvements that might need to be made in order for it to do so.
Is the transmission grid-connected solar project a reality?
The transmission grid-connected solar project is, in fact, already a reality. The UK’s first transmission grid-connected solar farm has begun commercial operations, marking a new era of renewable energy development and establishing this as an emerging trend.
