If you hook up a ton of these and actually generate _more_ than you consume at any time, you will actually _pay_ the power company for the power you push back into the grid. You have to get a special meter that can measure the direction of the flow. I have bought two residential roof-mounted solar systems and this is what they told me. If you never generate more than you use, maybe you're ok.
