it is no riddle. you are asking questions from 1942. except you put inverter into it. so you either think about current technology or go spark some wires.

you can island and not island at same time. decentralized grid means DECENTRALIZED grid.

every renewable needs battery next to it.

Indeed, not a problem to solve if you have all day to measure it.

The trick is measuring a frequency in the 60s of Hz of a non-sinusoid within a thousandth of a second.

Otherwise you get a short.
