What Are Export Limits?

Export limits are utility-defined caps on how much power your system can send back to the grid at any moment.

They are common under:

  • Net Energy Metering (NEM)

  • California Rule 21

  • IEEE 1547 interconnection rules


How Kora Handles Export Limits

  • Limits are set during commissioning

  • Kora monitors export in real time

  • Excess energy is redirected to batteries or reduced automatically


What You Don’t Need to Worry About

  • Manual settings

  • Violating interconnection rules

  • Utility penalties due to over-export

Kora always stays within approved limits.
