Energy policy refers to a strategy in which the government decides to address the issues of energy development and the growth of the energy industry, including energy production, distribution, and consumption. It includes legislation, international treaties, and incentives to investment. A review on global solar energy policy - ScienceDirect
Solar energy policies have a significant impact on solar power generation in many countries. Policies such as tax exemptions, subsidies, Feed-in Tariffs, and renewable portfolio standards have contributed to the increase in solar power generation.
The feasibility for solar energy to meet the energy demands of the US has been studied extensively. Hass et al. (2000) discussed the technical, geographical, and economic aspects in their report "Promotion Strategies for Electricity from Renewable energy Sources in EU Countries". Gipe (2000) also touched upon energy equity and diversifying the market with new incentives.
The success stories in solar energy policy include the USA, Canada, Germany, Spain, Australia, China, and France. In these countries, the existence of solar energy policies has led to a significant increase in solar power generation. For instance, in the USA... (rest of the passage remains unchanged)
Government promotion of solar energy applications comes from both the central government's e-policy and the support of local governments. The government's allowance is crucial in increasing the competitive power of PV production.

Grid tied systems consist of only 2 key components – solar panels and a dedicated grid tied inverter. All the electric power generated by the solar panels feeds through a mains synchronized inverter directly into your distribution board and offsets the power you would normally consume from Eskom. It will of course only do this when the sun ...
