That’s because when you use solar panels, you need batteries.

you need to purchase an Inverter which converts the DC from the panels to AC. The inverters are fairly pricey so check around. A good inverter will have a 10 year warranty. The panels have a 25 year warranty, but should last 40 years with no problem. Just make sure you clean them on a regular basis and if you live in an area with hard water, make sure you squeegee the water off, or the minerals will build up on the panels and lessen their efficiency.

Hooking up without batteries is actually the most common way to do it, but it’s a non-trivial project, and dangerous if you don’t know what you’re doing. There is a device called a grid-tied inverter – that performs the task of putting energy back into the power grid.
The reason you don’t see homemade panels being hooked to the grid is because the power company’s permission is required, and they will not grant it unless you meet building codes, and those codes require parts with at least a UL listing. No homemade panels would quality.
