It's not reliable if it's not grid tied. Your car might be fully charged. It also might not get any charge at all.

- ben_w 7mo agoGoing up thread a bit, I find "and have a fairly small connection to the grid." Though even without that, so what? The typical commute is not half a battery's worth of kilometres. And even for the exceptions, you're allowed to have a split between parking spaces labelled "this juice is completely free but slow at the best of times and depends on the weather" and others labelled "this juice costs ¥¥¥/kWh but is backed by that hydro plant and will fill your batteries in 30 minutes". I mean, parking spaces already get a split between long stay and short stay, it's not like people can't handle ideas like "free and meh vs. pricy and oooh", and likewise with fuel prices: https://www.istockphoto.com/de/foto/zapfsäule-in-usa-zeigt-preise-pro-gallone-für-diesel-bleifrei-88-normal-bleifrei-gm1448349903-485897452 https://www.istockphoto.com/de/foto/zapfsäule-in-usa-zeigt-p...
- blitzar 7mo agoI would take the gamble somewhere there are 220+ days of sunshine per year, happy to pay occasionally and commute for free the rest of the time. If anything all the panels can be connected together and charge the bosses cars up first and if there is any daylight left the charging can trickle down the org chart to the masses.
