Sorry folks, no progress last night. I found out the Arab Electric Cooperative (AEC) Board of Directors meeting was last night and decided to go to it. You see, I have an easily expandable, professionally designed and tested 700 watt grid-tied PV system that is not allowed to be used at the moment. The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) has a Generation Partners Program and AEC buys power from the TVA. TVA's program offers a better rate than required by law, but that makes it optional for its distributors to participate. AEC elected not to, as they are afraid of the future. I try to keep up a little with what's going on and to remind them that I still want to connect my system on the TVA program.
