>> PG&E Fuck PG&E. I live in the Bay Area, and candidly my choices for solar, inverters, batteries, heat pumps and any thing that will make a home eco friendly are abysmal. I have a fairly unique roof for the area. There has only been one solar installer who did not run when I explained what I needed. They all have a cookie cutter approach to minimize costs and maximize profits. There is no variance or selection. It's a onesie fits all solution to a dynamic problem. Electric water heating is interesting. You should look to install a tank and a tankless heater. It's called a booster configuration. Set the tank up to run during the day when you have free power and then only hit the tankless when it runs empty (or your variable costs are low). Good luck finding a plumber who knows how to set it up.
