"America is back."

#42

Quote:I don't think that's true. Some states (not Florida) and localities even subsidize solar, and/or require utilities to accept solar into the grid even though it can be disruptive. As far as I know there's no place where solar is made more difficult.


 

In places where solar is required to stand on it's own without subsidies or favorable government regulations it is a losing proposition since it's not a good source of dependable electricity without expensive battery backup.
 I'd also worry about how stable rooftop solar panels are in hurricane prone areas.
 

 

Solar has it's uses, but it's mainly 
relegated to those living off the grid in remote locations, those willing to pay way more for electricity to "save the planet," and those conned into spending way more than
advertised by unscrupulous solar dealers

 

A better question is how serious the activists are when they travel needlessly to remote conferences in cushy vacation spots to create such documents as the meaningless Paris accord?
 

Good points. I guess I am just upset Florida hasn't embraced solar as much as California.

 

I would love to go solar, but am not taking out a HELOC to make that happen, nor accepting a 15 year ROI on my investment.

 

Plus, since we are a log ways away from solar standing on its own for most people due to the amount of energy each household consumes, connection to the grid is still a necessity, and JEA/COJ will eventually raise these fees to make going solar even more unattractive.
