Energy generation requires intense planning as the amount generated has to be spent immediately.
Reason all countries require some sort of permission before installing solar power to your roof is this; as you can’t just add more power to your grid without addressing proper storage for excess electricity or decreasing certain plant outputs.
I don’t know of a single country that prevents you from adding panels to your roof without permission. The connection to the grid might be regulated, but that’s a totally different claim, my friend. And the difference is important when evaluating the rest of your statement.
This is true if you want to export the power back to the grid (aka grid tied), however, some solar controller systems can operate without this happening, and do not require any form of permission to operate.
Generally homes are grid tied unless they have batteries, simply for the fact that the solar power is generally available when power isn’t in high demand, and not available when power is in high demand. So the daytime power is pushed to batteries, and the batteries are consumed during usage time (usually near or after sunset).
Systems can be augmented to use grid power when solar/batteries are insufficient, and do so without sending any excess power back to the grid.
These systems are generally more expensive than grid tied systems, but they have obvious upsides to power availability when the grid is not delivering power. Another caveat is that most solar systems are not built to be able to handle the full power load from a household, so some things will be solar while many others will not be.
Unless you’re exporting the power, a permit is not required for generating power with solar. Installing it, however, you may want a permit for that…
