Outback Radian 80484A and 4048A
We are very excited about the new Outback 4048A Radian Inverter and the 8048A Radian Inverter, which is the Grid Zero Inverter. Everybody should be excited about this inverter. This inverter will be a game changer, and critical in changing the face of solar to promote it for the future. These inverters allow everyone to cut or perhaps completely eliminate their electric bill without getting permission from the electric company, the government or anyone.
Here is why this is important:
The electricity companies can do anything they want if you are beholding to them. The public utilities have been ramping up to disallow solar in any way they can. They have made up stories about how “the people who go solar make electricity more expensive for everyone else.” This creeping propaganda has actually convinced the Governor of Oklahoma to recently sign into law for the first time, that people who go solar must pay the public utilities an ongoing fee. The power companies have convinced local governments that they somehow have the right to charge more for your electricity during certain times of the day.
As a result, people have gotten clever and have installed battery based grid-tied systems that store up energy during times when the electricity is cheaper and use it when the electricity price is higher. But the utilities have cried “foul” and say they are not making their “just” due. They are trying to eliminate that possibility.
These inverters take it out of the realm of the public utilities even knowing. They don’t know anything about you in this scenario. All you are doing is using less and less electricity.
This inverter allows you to run your off-grid system, producing all your own power, except for when your usage exceeds your ability to produce energy. Then, and only then, do you buy a little bit from the grid. Only at that time, do you buy electricity. All they know is the electricity from the grid that you use.
You might want to run an air conditioner occasionally. You might have an electric dryer with a big load. That is when you buy electricity from the grid. It only uses electricity from the grid when demand exceeds output.
