Solar system size limits: How much does your local network

I have a 10.8kw PV Solar system (40 panels x 270 watt) the Fronius inverter or the Smart Meter limits my export to 4.6kw per hour. My export for the year is likely to be about 9,967 kwh for 12 months @ 11.3cents. The system could export more electricity but it is often partly idle because the limit of 4.6kw effectively reduces demand on the panels.

6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic inverter export restrictions]

Can a solar inverter be exported to Australia?

Many Australian homes are not allowed to export more than 5 kW to the grid. If they want a big solar system with an inverter larger than 5 kW, they must ‘export limit’ the inverter. Here’s what that means. Rooftop solar works by turning sunlight into electric power.

What happens if a solar inverter is export limited?

When an inverter is export limited, it has to know how much solar energy is being sent into the grid so it can immediately reduce output if it’s about to go over the limit. The ideal way to measure the power flow in and out of your house would be to ask your existing electricity meter.

Can a solar inverter be exported?

Larger inverter normally only permitted if they are zero export limited. When a home is exported limited, all the power the solar inverter can produce is available for the home to use.

What if a PV system exports too much power?

This is the maximum amount of power the system is allowed to export onto the grid. If the balance between PV generation and self-consumption reaches a point where the system might export more than this value, then the Cluster Controller or Sunny Home Manager can tell the inverters to limit their production.

How many kW can a solar inverter export?

All the solar is going into the house. There are no exports (Arrow C), the inverter is not limited. Simple arithmetic shows that as long as the house is consuming 1.5kW or more the system can never export more than 3.5kW (5kW-1.5kW = 3.5kW), so the export limiter will do nothing with a house consumption more than 1.5kW.

Does an export limiter limit the output of a 5kw inverter?

But great question about the export limiter. An export limiter of, for example, 3.5kW on a 5kW inverter will not limit the output of the inverter to 3.5kW. It will (if properly configured) limit exports to the grid to 3.5kW.
