PV systems do not necessarily have to use an inverter in order to produce usable power. For example, many “off-grid” systems use DC power to operate lights and motors. On-grid systems can also use DC power but the DC circuits in the home must then be separately connected to the rest of the home’s electric system through the use of a charge controller. 2. The AC system rating for the Energy Commission’s Emerging Renewables Program is . . .

The AC system rating for the Energy Commission’s Emerging Renewables Program is determined by multiplying the PTC rating of the module array by the inverter efficiency. 3.
