Grid Tied Solar PV Systems

What is a Grid Tied Solar PV System?

Grid tied solar PV systems are the most common residential and commercial solar pv systems. With most utilities, this allows consumers and businesses to consume the solar power that they produce first, utilize power from the utility at night or at times of high-consumption. Often the customer receives a utility bill credit for any solar power sent to the grid.

Residential solar tax incentives have been a major support for our customers in North and South Carolina. Regardless of where you live in 2021, the federal investment tax credit provides a 26% Federal tax credit based upon the total costs of our solar system. Thanks to a recent extension by Congress, the 26% incentive will be available through the end of 2022!

How Grid Tied Solar (Photovoltaic) Works

  1. The process of converting the sun’s rays into usable electricity is relatively simple. The sun’s rays are collected by the Photovoltaic (solar) panels. The panels create DC power, which is sent to the inverter.
  2. The inverter converts the DC power to AC power, which is the type of power your home can utilize. The AC power is fed to the main meter panel.
  3. Your home consumes the AC power generated by your solar system. Any excess power is sent back to the utility producing a monetary credit (for most utilities) that can be applied to energy consumed at night.
