You’re completely right. But I suppose @Renohren@lemmy.today was thinking of using the battery and solar panels for personal use in case the grid is down. Which in theory is possible but afaik it requires additional measures, just having the battery and solar panels installed doesn’t mean your fridge will work without the grid.
Oh, yeah: I think the smart Meter ( mandatory linky brand in France) can block outgoing if no incoming in it’s options. So not the fridge (but that one has thermal inertia going for it) but maybe a few led lights, maybe a small computer?
