Gas Supplies (again)

[NorthernRaider]

Many domestic PV systems are purposely designed ONLY to feed into the local grid, usually and unfortunately many terms and conditions from Installer companies prohibit the alteration of PV systems to switch to supplying the house if the grid fails, its something (in part) to do with preventing linesmen getting electrocuted whilst repairing cables that are supposed to be turned off but an errant domestic setup feeds 400 v back down the line. I believe HMG has also recently cut the feed in tariff allowance and there is strong pressure ( god knows why) to scrap it.

As I said before the big city bankers / investors / speculators have done a superb bit of PR in painting small scale generators like Farmers who host turbines or PV arrays into bogeymen, whilst ensuring the megabucks they rake in from the big companies goes unchallenged, but lets be honest here the average Brit is easily conned by the snake oil salesmen running the country.
