Solar power is provided to the grid whenever the available solar power exceeds local consumption. Energy produced by small arrays helps satisfy the energy needs of neighborhoods -- and this locally produced and consumed energy relieves the grid from having to transport the energy there in the first place.

What is needed to run a solar power station?
sunlight and photovoltaic panels (solar cells/panels) also electronic power inverters to change the DC from the panels into AC to send to the power grid.
Should solar panel KW capacity equal to the total KW loads?
The total kW load is only a guide to the solar panel capacity. Any energy generated by the solar panel will reduce the energy you draw from the grid, which leads directly to less CO2 output at the power plants. But the power plant is still needed for when there is a cloudy day. When it's cloudy the solar panel output is drastically reduced, although they still produce power, as the salesmen are keen to emphasize, but what they don't tell you is that the power output is reduced by about 95%. Also, in many countries, if your panels generate excess electricity you sell it back to the grid, so the capacity of the panels is not critical.
What is a system that links electricity produced in power stations to deliver it to where it is needed?
Power Systems or Transmission & Distribution
IF you Use Inverter Stored Power Instead Of Electricity are you wasting power or saving?
Wasting energy if you are hooked up to the grid and charging your battery from a power socket.Inverter efficiency can never be 100% and this arrangement only makes sense to use during power cuts. If your battery is charged by solar energy or wind turbine then you will be saving power.
What is the use of synchronous machines in power grid system?
To improve the power factor
How can you use grid in a sentence?
The introduction of a solar power plant helped me to get off of the electric power grid permanently. This grid is rectangular, not square.
How is residential solar power stored?
There are two general ways to store solar power that are available to private residences. The first are banks of batteries, and the second method is grid inter-tie, where you store your excess energy to the power grid and pull from the grid when there is no energy being generated (such as at night).
How do solar power stations work?
Solar power stations work by using a series of solar cells to convert energy from the Sun into electricity. It is then stored in batteries or transferred to the power grid.
Do solar power connected to power grid work during a power cut ie during a power cut in the grid would you still have power if it was during the day?
yes you would have power no matter what
What reasons can you think of for using solar power?
For a domestic supply.....stand-alone power......remote power(no grid)
Can you add solar DC plugs in your house that are separate from Grid Power?
Yes
What happens to unused solar power?
Unused solar power will usualy be stored and then used later when their is no sun or for emergancies. Or it can be sold back to the electrical grid.
What size solar system is needed to run a chest freezer?
If you are referring to solar-electric power, there are no specific power requirements for a chest freezer. The problem is that most solar-electric systems are designed to be connected to the normal power grid. If you have a power failure, your solar power system will automatically shut down. This is to protect electric utility workers from being shocked and injured by solar power systems providing power to a neighborhood that has been disconnected from the normal grid. In order to use your solar system even when the grid is down, you'll need a device that will isolate your solar system from the grid when the grid power is down. THEN we can talk about how much solar power you'll need to power your freezer. Remember that when the Sun goes down, you'll lose your solar power; if you intend that the freezer should continue to work at night or bad weather, you'll need either a backup generator or a whopping huge stack of batteries. Will you want power for anything else? Lights? Refrigerator? Furnace? Add it all up and then double it, so that there will be enough power tomorrow to not only run the system but also recharge the batteries.
How much does solar power cost?

What does pv solar power mean?
PV solar power system was designed to supply usable solar power by means of photovoltaics. ... Nowadays, most PV systems are grid-connected, while off-grid or stand-alone systems account for a small portion of the market.We SOLARICH started our venture into the field of solar with an objective of producing green renewable energy at affordable cost with world-class equipments and technology.We understans our client's requirements, do energy audits, and recommend appropriate solar solution.

What caused the power outage in Sparks Nevada last night?
The cause was the solar storm,which knocked out the power grid for a while.
