Obviously getting meters updated & letting folks push power to the grid is better. But there's also neat solutions showing up like the Zoltux, which is an 800w solar+inverter kit that also monitors the power feed to the home, and never nets power to the grid, only offsets power you're using. For markets where there's encumbrances to solar its an interesting technical option, since no net metering infrastructure is needed (and you don't have to rewire your home like this submission https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45476820)

It's also slick as hell seeing DJI for example add grid-tie capabilities to their Power 2000 power station/ battery. Capable of 1800W solar, but gained grid tie after the fact. https://dronedj.com/2025/09/01/dji-power-2000-energy-grid/

The anti islanding removes a significant risk, and obviously confronts most people's intended desires.

A turn switch at the fuse box might get over that, otherwise you're seeking the plug behind the fridge freezer to plug it directly into the "UPS" when the bad thing happens.
