I’m a little wary of plug-in solar in the US. Some of the bills propose allowing 1200 watt panels which can overload wiring depending on what else is on the circuit and how in the wall wiring is run. Limiting plug-in panel wattage to, say, 400 watts might be necessary
Yeah batteries are cool, especially if you’ve already got them (i.e. an EV). I could definitely see that happening. A real-time market for individuals/homeowners is a really cool idea, but people just have to be cognizant of the fact that in a pure free market the prices they get aren’t going to be as good as the prices utility-scale generators get. To the current administration’s credit while they did gut a lot of subsidies for renewable energy they left the battery ones intact (for utility scale). I’d like to see the same subsidies for individuals as well.
