More people have been tieing their solar and wind powered units to the grid so they can get paid from the power company for making power instead of using it.  You will want to check with your power company first because not all of them offer this pay back program.  The process of getting paid from your electrical company for making more power than you are using is called net-metering.  There is a growing trend of people net-metering their houses so that they can stop paying these huge power bills and actually start making money from the power company.  Some houses can generate enough electricity to make tieing into the grid like a part time job.

You will find some great detailed instructions at the link below for figuring out the best method to tie into your electrical grid.  I recommend following these plans because you do not want to mess this up.  It will take some time and effort so have fun and enjoy using the suns power.
