Has anyone seen a chart of the 50 State’s and rulings like this in correlation with voting?
Women and minorities hardest hit.
Half..in sunny Texas you can sell power to the grid ERCOT is by law obligated to take solar first on the wholesale market at full market price if you are smart enough to incorporate with an LLC the minimum system size is 15kw to the grid bid at 15 min increments software can and does handle all the bidding and reconciliation. My.part of Texas gets 220+ full days of.Sun and many partial days I haven’t played a power bill in years. During last Feb ice storm and blackout my panels made surplus 3 of 4 days my large home was the only one with power and lights and most importantly heat pumps. All my neighbors came over to warm up.charge phones and eat BBQ. I couldn’t have asked God himself for a better demo of off the grid mode on a full sized solar / inverter system. Every one of my neighbors now has at least 12,000 watts of panels some have 18me we have 4000+ sqft homes and huge roof lines. My panels are on trackers in the average behind the house since I rain water collect off my roof line I didn’t want panels with metals running off into that water. Trackers double your power output over a 12 month period as they follow the suns yearly cycle. Cheers mate.
Isn't Texas one of the ones saying they're going to change the law to force you to pay something like $5 per month for every kW of your system, and lower how much the utility pays you for your excess kW?
“You voted for this, enjoy the suck”
I guess you voted for Biden so you enjoy the suck.
Gonna be pretty costly to charge those EV’s. And how about that force conversion to Electric heat the democrats have been pushing around lately. I am pretty sure that people can’t chose when they need heat.
“As a residential consumer, I have done that also.”
Me too. In our case the off-peak rate was a lot lower than the constant-rate option and we saved money while enduring occasional inconveniences.
Basically it’s a billing system in which you pay for the generator (your peak usage) and the fuel (the total kwh that you consume).
The world’s situation now is that certain places are short on fuel, not generating capacity. The time-of-use scheme won’t help that unless it causes total kwh consumed to decrease.
Exactly.
For decades we have been tearing out power plants, replacing them with green energy, and not working the balance.
If they go to all e vehicles, we will be in rolling blackouts with most people not being able to use their Tesla

Hopefully the people of the world are learning several lessons. Mother Theresa said that wisdom is achieved through suffering.
This must be why they pushed the smart meters so hard.
Yes. Part of the 2030 reset goal
Sorry so late to respond.
There’s some folks from 1Solar coming out to my house next Tuesday morning.
The way they were selling this is that once installed, an array would cut my average bill in half.
I’m currently writing down a bunch of solar powered questions that I plan to ask them when they arrive.
And, NEVER vote dim.
Did you look at your past year’s power bills? You need dollar amounts paid each month and total kWh consumed that month.
