Is it normal for a system with your configurations to get hit with all these restrictions?
Yes, holeydonut's system is always hit with stupid restrictions. Because as we determined, holeydonut = sucks.
I have no clue what is the status quo for the rest of you lot. Tesla and PG&E both scoured my interconnection agreement and made sure I had the executed interconnection agreement that matched the advanced features Tesla deployed to my system.
This feels like the exact opposite experience others had where they just had features enabled willy nilly. I feel like some people got the ability to both ESS-grid-charge and ESS-grid-export; which seems not allowed by PG&E period.
Anyway, my exact interconnection agreement now exactly matches the features they deployed on my system. And it took me 3 months of back and forth BS to even get that interconnection approved under NEM2-MT in 2020. I even got the insurance that PG&E "requires"! No other homeowner in NorCal apparently has ever gotten the insurance naming PG&E for their NEM2-MT PTO... State Farm says I'm the first; and they're the largest insurance carrier in California. H2ofun doesn't even have NEM2-MT, and Vines seems to have gotten NEM2-MT without any hand wringing. IIRC his 5x powerwalls are listed as eligible for grid exporting. And I'm thinking Tesla approved Vines to get enabled for both grid charge and grid export lolz.
