Energy flows into the house grid. The consumers connected, for example, household devices or lighting, consume the
energy. The energy left over is fed into the public grid. When the Astronergy is not gernerating any energy, e.g., at night, the
consumers which are connected are supplied by the public grid.The Astronergy does not have its own energy meter. When
energy is fed into the public grid, the energy meter spins backwards.
Energy is fed directly into the public grid. The Astronergy is connected to a separate energy meter. The energy produced is
