Sad state.

Here in NJ we have 1 to 1 kwatt credit.

It build a 280 kwatt solar array like we did. burn 55 kwatts 24/7/365. is 1260 kwatts burned

feed the grid the extra 225 kwatts for and average of 5 or 6 hours a day. yeah days are longer but 5-6 is the full power average daily.

so 5 x 230 = 1125 kwatts credited back.

1260-1125 = 135  you owe this much kwatts

 55 x 5 = 275 used directly when sun is up

so  135-275 = -140 net kwatts daily  so burn just a little more than 55 kwatts to mine each day. As your goal is to be net 0 or + very little kwatts each day.


This should be federal law as the minimum any grid can pay.

While solar will never zero out carbon. it could drop carbon for electrical use by more than 45%.

Rather than the meager 10% or so it does now.
