There are more than ~ 4 Mio #pluginpv systems in Germany and there is no single report of an electrician or lineman being endangered!
Microinverters safely shut themselves off within 0,2 seconds if there is no grid.
In fact grid formation / island grid ability is an expensive feature.

Lacey Shaver gives a good overview of what has to happen in the US to make the adoption of #pluginpv easy.

WyoFile reports the #pluginpv draft legislation in #Wyoming (House Bill 14) that would have cleared issues around #balconysolar died on the committee stage.

Slowly #Australia seems to be advancing toward legalising #pluginpv!
Same Discussion as in the #US and #UK: “His lab confirmed the maximum power injected into the circuit is less than 800 watts, or two panels, the maximum that German law allows and which could be a useful guide for Australia.”

The #UK is working on leglizing #pluginpv, but as Gordon Routledge points out:
“There is no safety problem: “Loss of mains equals shutdown. the moment the inverter detects the supply has gone, it’s designed to stop exporting rapidly (anti-islanding).”

American nonprofit @brightsaver.bsky.social reports that the #Vermont Senate and the #Virginia Virginia House of Delegates have voted for #pluginpv bills. The other chambers have to agree as well.

The utilities want to stop you from using Plug-In solar with fees and red tape. You can help by asking your state rep to pass SB 868. SB 868 would let you use these panels without needing permission from the utility, so long as the panels meet electrical safety standards.
