When in the planning and design stages of a solar PV project, you may come across the term export limitation. Essentially the process involves fitting a device to cap exported power going from the solar system to the grid. But why would you want or need one? Read on to find out... What is export limitation?
In essence, solar export control refers to the amount of solar power you can send to the grid from a grid-connected solar installation. These limits can apply to any size of solar installation, from utility-scale projects to solar panels on private residences. Suppose a solar plant produces more electricity than can be supplied to the grid.
With this method, a solar installation is not permitted to export any power to the grid. While this prevents problems with the grid, it is often the case that excess energy generated by a system is wasted unless storage solutions are in place. How does a solar export limiter work?
Now, let’s look at some of the pros and cons of solar export limits. Allows for the installation of larger systems, particularly consumer systems — If there is an export limiter in place, you can often install a larger system without fear of over-exporting to the grid.
The network may also stipulate that a solar export control device is included in any plans before new installations are approved. However, the inclusion of this tech often results in automatic approval. There are three main types of solar export control that are currently used. Let’s look at each in turn.
Solar export limiters work through a smart meter installed into the system. This smart meter monitors the amount of electricity being produced as it passes through the system. Once the set threshold is reached, the smart meter sends signals to the inverter to switch off and stop any more power from being exported to the grid.
