Can a solar PV system be connected to the National Grid?
While it is possible to have a solar PV system that is not connected to the National Grid, choosing not to connect means missing out on potentially lucrative incentive schemes like the government's Feed-In Tariff (FIT). Here is a list of FAQs on connecting to the National Grid.
What are the grid code compliance requirements?
One of these learnings concerns the Grid Code compliance requirements when connecting to the UK transmission system. The Grid Code provides a publicly available set of requirements for connecting to the system and comprises of three main sections: The European Connection Conditions, the Planning Code, and the European Compliance Process.
What is a solar energy grid connection code (segcc)?
The second is the Solar Energy Grid Connection Code (SEGCC) which stipulates the technical requirements for connecting medium-scale (with capacity 500 kW to less than 20 MW) and large-scale (with capacity greater than or equal to 20 MW) solar power plants to the medium-voltage distribution networks or to the transmission grid.
Why should a solar PV system be connected to the grid?
For financial benefit. Connecting your solar PV system to the grid allows you to take advantage of the FIT, which gives you a fixed amount of money for each kWh of electricity you generate. On top of these payments for energy generation, you also receive a sum of money for feeding any surplus energy into the grid.
