  1. @carpetbomberz
    Yes!

    My plan:
    1. #NetMetering ➡️sell solar to grid @ peak
    2. #LoadDisplacement ➡️buy grid off-peak, run on batteries on-peak

    I export 💯 #solar to #grid for credits & import cheaper.
    ➡️~2 kWh use for each solar kWh exported.

    Solar pays for house baseline load.
    Battery load displacement lets me *add* load at no cost.

    I figure I can power my new cold climate heat pumps & charge 2 BEV *for free*.

    Electric bill 📉90%
    Gasoline bill 📉$0
    Natural gas bill 📉75%

  3. ⚡ Thinking about installing solar?

    Net metering can significantly reduce your electricity bills, but many homeowners don't fully understand how it works before investing.

    We explained the basics in a simple guide:

  7. Afrikas #Solarenergie wächst rasant.

    Sinkende #Modulpreise, neue Projekte und politische Dynamik treiben den Ausbau voran. Länder wie #Nigeria, #Simbabwe und #Liberia setzen verstärkt auf #Sonnenstrom.

    Auch der US-chinesische Handelskonflikt wirkt sich aus. Chinesische #Solartechnik flutet afrikanische Märkte. Speicherlösungen und #NetMetering machen den Strom zudem wirtschaftlicher nutzbar.

  9. It's November, and we're still producing more energy than we use. The nights have been in the mid to low 30s, heat pumps running (the red in the graph).

  11. There are four solar panels feeding the IT battery system, which has cancelled the entire house load (even the antifa torrent server is running on this!). Meanwhile the other panels are blasting my utility meter backwards and building a credit for winter 😆

  13. Utility attacks on net metering are frivolous.

    Let's look at an example.

    Lydie's Neighbor's house uses 20kWh per day.

    Lydie over produces all of that and then some.

    Lydie's kWh arrive at her neighbor's house with almost no line loss, and no use of transmission.

    If the utility powered Lydie's neighbor from their power plants, they might need to generate 25kWh, assuming 5kWh is lost in transmission.

    But the utility charges Lydie's neighbor full price for Lydie's kWh even though the utility is coming out ahead, and tries to say that Lydie doesn't deserve full net metering.

    It's BS and we all know it.

  15. The solar installation has been live for 21 days, and after a cold and rainy start, as of yesterday we've finally produced more than we've consumed. I hope we can stay in the black most of the year.

    You can see that we've only had a handful of fully sunny days, but the panels produce significant energy even on cloudy days.

    This winter's polar vortex BS was bad. We exited winter with only 700kWh in the net metering bank.

  21. I have been warning both friends and family about this, and advising them to ditch mains grid ASAP & behold:

    #Pakistan effectively abandons #NetMetering to 'cope' with #Rooftop #solar revolution

    dawn.com/news/1897740/solar-us

    Net-billing axed, electricity purchases from solar prosumers capped at roughly a FIFTH of what they sold from the grid, full sales tax (GST) + surcharges  irrespective of net consumption, no tax refunds

    This is so stupid lol

Covering solar, wind, and hydro options, it aids in understanding energy buyback rates and grid-tied renewable systems for the Highest Good energy model.

  25. This cold winter, with all these polar vortex incursions, is costly even for an efficient home. Approx $500 a month would be spent on electricity if it weren't for solar and net-metering.

    The strongest vortex of the year is starting today, with below 0f expected. I bet we approach $30 per day this week.

  29. Factories employing their own power plants alongside grid connections will have to play "equalized" rates to compensate for the low uptake of mains electricity

    People wanting net-metering now have to pay monthly charges for the privilege, and are considered competition

  31. As I hv alluded to, #Pakistan s grid is inching to collapse and the people in charge are frantically trying to keep it afloat rather than make it adapt.

    dawn.com/news/1883343/nepra-hi

    9-14K MW of demand (15-35% of national capacity depending on the season) has disappeared in less than 12 months thanks to solar!

  33. Winter is fully here in Maryland. The heat pumps have been running continuously for hours. It's 18f outside, and will get much colder with the vortex. 6-8 inches of snow tomorrow will cover the solar, so we'll be operating off our banked kWh with the utility, of which 4MWh remains. Thankful we have that much since I don't expect the solar to melt off for a week or more. If I really had to I guess I could find a teenager to broom off the ground mounts 😆 #solar #winter #renewables #Netmetering
