So basically with all the solar panels putting extra power into the grid, they’re already coordinating thousands of distributed systems and this is about balancing those against the actual demand.

Home-scale solar systems are typically not "coordinated" centrally. They have their own controller that chooses when and when not to export to the grid.

this is about balancing those against the actual demand.
