Balcony solar is all the rage in Germany. Why not in the US? (www.canarymedia.com)

I’m not sure how Germany is addressing these issues.

Simple.

  1. When there is no power in the grid, these devices shut down automatically.

  2. The balcony panels have an output power limit of 800 Watt, to prevent overloading of house-internal wires. If there is more power, it can be stored in a battery.
