...how energy usage patterns will change as the relative cost of nighttime energy usage goes up.
My fondest dream is that they'll stop dotting the countryside with those ridiculous pole-mounted "security" lights, and we'll be able to experience nighttime again.
- kragen 6y agoI would love this, but battery costs and solar-panel costs are nowhere near high enough to cause it to happen in order to save on the power bill. They probably never will be.
- sparker72678 6y agoI think our best hope for this working out is from the (very slowly) growing view of light pollution as the actual _pollution_ that it is. I would absolutely love this, but I still find it hard to imagine this changing in any significant way in the next 25 years.
