That is it in a nutshell. I am waiting for approval for the program, If approved then I can go forward to begin purchasing the system and start building it. One more potential problem. Enphase has an online monitoring system at: https://enlighten.enphaseenergy.com https://enlighten.enphaseenergy.com/public_systems I suggest that you eventually sign up as a system owner. You can download the data and create your own graphs such as: http://802.11junk.com/jeffl/solar/380732/total-energy-21040613-20150213.jpg Incidentally, you can query the Envoy controller directly either via a web interface or using a graphing program (MRTG): http://blog.tinle.org/?p=111 http://pvoutput.org http://pvoutput.org/outputs.jsp None of the system owners I deal with want me to do this, so I haven't bothered to try it. Now that I'm thinking about it, you might run into another problem. The People's Republic of Santa Cruz (county) uses the NFPA NEC code which now demands 2ft of clearance between the roof peak and the solar panels. This clear area is for ventilating the roof should the house catch fire. I have some issues with this requirement because it significantly reduces the available roof area for panels for no benefit because the other side of a typical hip roof is usually clear of solar panels. You might want to check whether this is a requirement in your area. I have some docs on the topic if becomes a problem.
