Good luck getting those little power plants serviced, cleaned, and repaired, suckers!
Why you want to run your own power plant is beyond me. I pay good money to have professionals run power plants far away from me and to keep the systems delivering the power to my house in tip-top shape. The system works well (at least until government meddles and makes the utilities buy "green" power like this).
If I remember, the original thread was BREAKING NEWS: IT’S GOING DOWN! THIS IS HUGH & SERIES!!!
I don’t see that one anywhere.
Does anyone have figures on the value of the solar energy produced vs what has been spent(and lost)on it so far?
Theey just started a small scale solar program through the power company near where I live. People can sign up for it,but I’m not sure how this works. Anxious to see how this works out down the road a ways.
I’m sure a $5,000 battery is the retail price of something small like for a hybrid Prius. Reconditioned would be much less. For a high energy pack like for a Tesla, we’re talking tens of thousands of dollars.
Of course, over time it will come down a lot, especially with Musk building his battery factory.
