Under the 2025 Energy Code, battery energy storage system is defined as a stationary equipment that receives electrical energy and then utilizes batteries to store that energy for later use to supply electrical energy when needed.
The Microgrid Exchange Group defines a microgrid as "a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources within clearly defined electrical boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid. A microgrid can connect and disconnect from the grid to enable it to operate in both grid-connected or island-mode.".
Grid energy storage, also known as large-scale energy storage, is a set of technologies connected to the electrical power grid that store energy for later use.
A solar inverter or photovoltaic (PV) inverter is a type of power inverter which converts the variable direct current (DC) output of a photovoltaic solar panel into a utility frequency alternating current (AC) that can be fed into a commercial electrical grid or used by a local.
The gap lines are spaces between the solar cells, through which you can see the panel's white backing. Both the fingers and the busbars are electrical conductors.
PID is essentially a voltage leak. It happens when a difference in electrical potential between the solar cells and other panel materials, like the frame, causes ions to migrate. This can create a kind of "shadow" or dark patch on the panel.
