Can someone clarify/explain what happen to the surplus solar power generated from a roof top system , that gets "fed back" into the grid ?
I understand that the GT inverter will increase the voltage marginally over the supply voltage to feed the power back to the local supply lines, but that is still only 240/380 volts (110v/phase) and no where near the much higher (10kV ?) of the local distribution grid feeding the step down transformers at the local sub station.
Will my "feed back" power go any further than that sub station , being redistributed on the local lines to my neighbours, or is there some mechanism for pushing my keen little kWs back past the substation, up to experience some National travel to far away places ? :?
