The issue is that a bunch of solar without storage sucks for the grid and a lot of countries can’t afford all the storage so they can’t subsidize solar like they used to.
E.g in my country solar is unusable in the winter whereas in the summer we already have so much excess production sometimes that electricity prices go negative for daytime hours and you have to disconnect your panels from the grid unless you want to pay the grid company. We have 18 hour days in the summer and 18 hour nights in the winter.
Only the middle class worries about lowering their utility bills. Up until recently, everything i listed had huge federal incentive programs. Trump got rid of it all.
MFW I remember that I traded for an EV, installed whole house batteries, and solar panels.
Ughhh solar is so expensive now though and so many of those businesses are dying. I kept waiting for the subsidies but solar was not affordable :/
Now there’s no subsidies at all. Jelly.
