Grid-tied systems are just starting to show up here. These systems generate solar electricity and route it to the electric utility grid, offsetting a home's power consumption and, in some cases, turn the electric meter backwards.
I don't think the systems are subsidized and are pretty expensive to install. I know of one house in my neighborhood with this setup.
