Giant solar farms (like Solar Star in LA) will connect to the higher voltage grid rather than the low voltage grid used domestically. Exporting large amounts of power and moving that power geographically is exactly what this is designed for. There may be issues with lack of capacity in district and national grids. But it is a different problem to the domestic solar issue. It can be solved by reinforcement of existing lines, upgrading substations and building new ones.
