I was looking into buying a solar system and was told by the sales person that here in California PG and E requires your panels to cut off power to your house if there is a grid failure. One of the main reasons I was going to get one was so that I have a backup for the Leaf. She said that since we only use 60$ a month in electricity that leasing doesn't really make sense. Anyone have any similar experiences or stories to share? Is there a way around this? This seems like the most backwards system to me. If your going to have distributed power then why kill one of the major advantages of having one? (During a catastrophic failure)
