Lets hope PG&Es price gouging kicks-off people to look for off-grid solution. EVs have humongous batteries, home batteries are getting pretty cheap. With solar + EV + home battery there is a strong economic case for a large number of people in CA to switch to off grid. Which makes PGE raise rates, driving more people to go off grid. California is a big enough market, which can create this new demand for off grid, new companies and economies of scale.
- M95D 1y agoThe green tech is completely under the control of governement even after it is installed and operational: - Tax imports of panels and batteries - Tax and oppose new installations. - Only offer disincetive grid prices to those having panels on their houses. Low pay or negative pay to push to grid, higher cost to consume from the grid. - Tax installed panels, even off-grid ones. - Introduce new onerous "safety" requirements.
