Drake:
I agree with Peter. The PV inverters are "behind" the battery
inverters feeding local loads served via a protected loads panel, as
well as maintaining the SOC on the battery bank. Yes, they feed the
grid, but do so via the battery inverter.
The GTBB (grid-tie-battery-backup) is a PV system that provides
local battery storage of excess solar production, and can export
power to the grid if configured to do so.
Adding GTBB to an existing GT-only installation would be analogous
to adding a local storage tank to a water pumping system.

Fed Tax Credit
I talked to my tax accountant. She had never had come across
anything that would indicate that it would be a problem. Has
anyone had customers that did or didn't have issues?
Thanks,

Talk to your tax advisor (or have the customer talk to
theirs). Don’t ever give out tax advise (unless you’re
licensed to) as it opens you to liability should you give them
the wrong advise and they get audited by the IRS.

Hello Wrenches,
Is it permissible to take the the tax credit on the batteries
and backup inverter of an AC coupled system when the system
would be capable of feeding the grid without the backup
inverter and the batteries?
Thank you,
Drake
