    Nothing that they will do will be looked at as fair by everyone. Life is not fair. Some always have more than others which is why we are not communists.

    Tesla power wall in Tesla app. What am I really seeing?

    V3 put on some of my solar, and the PW's. As I told Mark, I would never buy solar now, and new recommended PW's. But if one has money to burn, go for it. With my setup, I have zero energy true with a huge surplus. I am basically off the grid for maybe at least 50% of the year. I love having...

    Tesla power wall in Tesla app. What am I really seeing?

    I just talked with Mark yesterday, so we know each other. Small world. I have 30kw of solar and 7 PW's. When I was talking to Mark yesterday he asked my opinion of buying solar and PW's. I said do not do it now with NEM3. But he said he could get them for free. I said o not do it. I gave...

    NEM-PS Annual True-Up Calculation [PG&E example]

    Yep, that it is. I have a huge eligible for credit, but never ever get close since with the batteries, heat pumps and EV, I use in the winter basically all the summer. But now, between seasons, with no heat or ac, I am pumping TONS back to PGE. I think the best is like June I have a credit of...

    NEM-PS Annual True-Up Calculation [PG&E example]

    What are credits? Last year I had a 5000 dollar surplus, and got like 20 cents on the dollar. With the EV car now, the credit will not be as large, but I will still have one larger than most.

    Does a battery ever have a positive ROI with net metering

    In the winter with my heat pumps I probably use 60 to 100, especially now that I have an EV. My lowest solar production has been about 8kwh. So, NO WAY would batteries EVER make sense to say they could power my house.

    Does a battery ever have a positive ROI with net metering

    Yep, which is why I have 30kw of solar, 90 panels! I can be off grid 100% for like 6 months of the year with my 7 batteries. BUT, still no ROI for any of this. I will not either live long enough, or be in this house to ever recover BUT is sure is nice to heat and cool my house with my heat...

    Does a battery ever have a positive ROI with net metering

    IMO, and I have 7 batteries, I tell folks batteries have NO ROI. If you have money to burn, go for it, but they are not zero issues.

    Adding battery storage bumped me from NEM 1.0 to 2.0

    This whole 1kw replacement is interesting. What would trigger them to change from 1 to 2? Seems maybe only if you ask? I my case, I use SO much, that it generally, especially in the winter, we I send back is WAY WAY less then I was approved for. So even if I lets say tripled my system to 60...

    Advice requested: wall connector & pedestal install

    I ran a 200 amp tap to a new subpanel. I then drove seperate lines from there. I could program them so it would be limited, but I just know one would never really want to use maybe a most 2 at a time. I just wanted them so cords would not have to be run all over the place depending on where...

    Wondering about generator use with Solar Roof and Powerwalls

    I do not understand your comment the generator can still see and be charged by the solar panels? i have a similar setup, but I have 2 200 amp panels. Everything is wired like I have 2 houses. I have a ATS on each panel. So, if I lose power, and the master ATS loses PW batteries, it turns...

    Testing outage with solar/batteries/generator

    From what I researched, the Generator cannot do this. One ATS much be the master, and the other the slave. So, if the slave runs out of batteries, I have to turn of the PW;s on the master, of the generator does not kick in, which powers my logically 2 homes.
