Grid-Connected Renewable Energy

Grid-connected renewable energy refers to systems like solar panels or wind turbines that generate electricity and are directly linked to the main power grid. This setup allows the renewable energy source to supply electricity to homes, businesses, and industries while also drawing power from the grid when needed. Any excess energy produced can often be fed back into the grid, sometimes earning credits. This interconnected system helps increase renewable energy use, reduces reliance on fossil fuels, and benefits the environment by providing cleaner, sustainable power options within the existing electricity infrastructure.
