> I wish I could run a water heater, heating or fridge off this system to use the excess 270Wh of the daily energy production.

Or better yet, be able to sell the excess power. In the future power grid this will be possible.

It's possible today, almost everywhere in the USA. In fact, the power company will usually buy it from you at the same rate that they are charging. My house is turning the meter backwards as we speak.

To do this, you need extra components to protect your house, the power grid, and the electricians who work on it.
