You might consider AC coupling

Letting the generator simulate the grid will void the 25 year warranty. I wanted to do the exact same thing when I was doing my solar.

With the warranty issue stated you have a large PV system and if the generator and the solar made more than you could use that power needs to go somewhere. The microinvertes would just keep increasing the voltage back to the generator. They would end shutting them self’s down if there was nowhere for the power to go.


Here is a post on this subject

Solar mike can maybe post some good solutions that he has used in the field.
I have been reading about AC coupling but have no real world experience with it.
