Is the grid prepared for this working at scale? And it seems to me that
all solar would "sell" at the same time, driving down the price to zero
or even creating an excess, while all the ones in this system would need
energy at the same time (night) driving the price up, therefore again,
needing some kind of storage.

I did some research and calculation of how much it would cost with hydrogen storage for a solar powered house in sweden, and 10 years ago, I found a pilot project in northern sweden, and the cost was about 1 million EUR (give or take).
A couple of months ago I had a look around, and the cost as far as I could estimate, for storage, had dropped to about 500k EUR.
If the decrease in cost continues, it would become feasible with solar in sweden in about 12-20 years time if you're doing it as a hobby.
