Default Feeding solar power back into municipal grid: Issues and finger-pointing

you have to feed certain select loads 100% from a PV system (ie -
disconnect them from the municipal energy source) if you're going to
make a meaningful contribution to the supply-side of a municipal or
city-wide grid.


A devastating analysis.

I am sure when the utilities read it they will stop paralleling
generators, since that just causes the amount of electricity used to go
up from what would be used by isolated systems.

Careful!
Sarcasm does not work well in a text medium, at all!

People cannot see your facial expression and people are never sure unless it
is totally ridiculous.

I agree with your point but it is made very poorly in a text only medium.
