I know there are solar panels that supply direct power. I see them on the shows where people live in the wilderness and use them as their only source of power. Are these illegal in California? Are California consumers not told the panels they buy and install don’t supply direct power?

Not sure if illegal, but the State offers financial benefits to customers who install the solar panels to (supposedly) provide power to power grid...Loans, rebates, reduced rates, etc.
Wait until CA starts taxing the rain whether it falls or not.
No, they're not illegal. I know a couple of people who live off the grid in the Sierra foothills who use them.
People here like to claim a lot of things are illegal in California that really aren't. Someone today claimed it was illegal to trim your trees or clear brush from your property. Neither is true, and in fact you can be fined for NOT clearing brush from around your home.
That is my question, who buys a solar system and doesn’t buy an inverter and batteries? Was this some kind of Power Company deal. I know that the Tesla/Solar City installs can include a Tesla PowerWall Battery.
This shows how rich some Californians are, that they can buy a $20K system and not know the details of it.
