It goes the same place the as the power in a disconnected battery.
I am curious what happens to the watts /volts when your system is fully charged and you have no demand? Were does the extra power go? - Itinerant1ExplorerDepends on the size of system or your excess potential power generated. Is it enough for your hot water or fridge or just a tv/ radio?

Yes, but then you end up with a bunch of hot water just before dark, and the water gets cold overnight, so it is no good for your morning shave, etc.
They do have a special element thing that you can use with your hot water tank for that. - 2oldmanExplorer II
