The scenario
A residential rooftop solar PV system generates DC power, converts it to AC, and supplies home loads while a bidirectional net meter manages grid exchange based on real-time generation versus consumption.

Read the decisions behind it.
01
Whether solar generation exceeds, falls short of, or matches household consumption
02
When to export surplus power to the utility grid versus import deficit power from the grid
