Re: $2/kwh is a lot of money
This is the gotcha I don’t really get.
If there is an extended power outage, that’s one reason kinda why house bought a power wall, and will be keeping it for themselves, so they can keep their Nespresso machine fired up whilst they wait it out.
Feels like another ‘Tragedy of the Commons’.
Aside: if you can afford the capital cost without having to fund it via a loan you are quid’s in. If not, the numbers on solar don’t have a great ROI and are a long term gamble.
