Sure I get how important it is to electrically heat a pool in a power outage. 😉

There are many 4,000 sq ft pool homes in my area with electric pool heating and electric everything else where 25kW would just cover the electric bill. Some larger homes around here can definitely require more. Florida Power & Light allows up to 50kW on 120/240V split phase service, but only if expected production does not exceed an estimated 115% of historical annual usage.

Why is there a need for more than 25KW for residential please? Just curious. In Nevada, 25KW is way into commercial.

Greetings wrenches,
In Pacific Power territory we are coming up against roadblocks with regards to whole house battery backup systems with inverter ratings higher than 25kw. Even when the generation capacity is below the 25kw residential limit, net metering applications are being rejected based on the inverter rating.. The inverter rating in these cases is sized to handle the customer's existing loads and will never export more than the 25kw limit dictated by Oregon PUC. I am drafting a letter to Energy Trust, the state, etc. But am curious if anyone else gas had this problem or come up with a solution. I would appreciate to hear any experiences or similar interactions with PGE or PPL or even how this has worked in other jurisdictions, states, etc. Any input or support is greatly appreciated.
