Dishonest post. When you bought your system you were grandfathered into either NEM 1 or NEM 2. Please provide proof that your arrangement changed.

Australia has been a great success for solar and battery storage. Your statement about a wealth transfer is putting no value on climate change or good air quality which benefits al…

Bluetti already has a product for this available in the EU. I have been posting eveywhere that they need to bring it to the US. https://www.bluettipower.eu/products/balco-transfer-…

Tesla might support it. https://www.teslarati.com/apple-developing-missing-link-tesl...

A high powered EV charger is 800 volts. Totally safe and outdoors in thousands of places.

I see an overwhelming interest in Nuclear power in our media and in online articles posted to reddit and HN. In many discussions I have had online and in person most people are sig…

Win8 was a disaster. Hard to understand what Steven is even saying or his point about the Macbook Neo. The Neo is enabled by the increasing capability of the phone chips and the pr…

The peak max solar record in ERCOT was hit today at over 31GW. Five years ago it was only 5.4GW. The peak renewables to load was also hit today at 83%. Throughout the entire day so…

Robert has a whole set of youtube channels on electric vehicles and other renewable technology. It’s quite impressive what he does now but I always see Kryten in him, strange. http…

Yah, check this one out. https://www.docanpower.com/panda-52v-942ah-48kwh-prebuilt-pa...

The safety aspect of them is probably more important than in grid storage. Also the performance at colder temps.

I find it’s best to use it to actually give context. Like prompted with a peice of information that the LLM doesn’t know how to look up (such as a link to the status or logs for an…

The described version of community solar is nice. How it is usually implemented like in Maine ends up sucking. The root cause is that they wanted community solar customers to be ab…

I consume about 17MWh a year between two EVs and a large heat pump for winter heating. I will have overproduction now with the 2nd array. We do have net metering at about 80% of th…

You can do bidirectional with most GM vehicles now with the GM energy solution. I don’t have this but I did have a call with them. Thier max output is only 9.6kW so it can’t do a w…

Part of it is the weight of a battery this size but the bigger issue is the aerodynamics of the large frontal area. The Lucid Gravity has a 450 mile range with a 123kWh pack. It’s …

I’ve just done a legtimate 425 mile solar powered round trip which is the culmination of many things I will explain below. I can now effectively drive anywhere in a 225 mile radius…

Dropbox does have a terminal level which I think was IC4 when I was there. On the other hand they have recently done a layoff round every 1-2 years and if you are not a growing emp…

It should be funded by a carbon tax… the root cause of the more rapid and intense climate change. Gas and carbon emitting electricity sources should be a LOT more expensive than th…

Why doesn’t the UK just deploy large battery banks like Tesla Megapack?

California is also going negative quite often now. Instead of dropping prices and encouraging usage during those times they curtail. The utility model is completely broken. https:/…

California has the stupidest energy policy I have ever seen. And their PUC has some of the most corrupt people on it.
