In Reply to: Battery storage is brutally expensive... posted by dark_dave56 on July 1, 2022 at 02:53:55:
Yeah, $8/mo per kWh to be a customer, that's $32 for a typical 4kWp system for a 3b, 2ba home. Net metering is going away and excess production will get paid at wholesale and any power used will be priced by time of use instead of a 1 to 1 offset. Basically, you'll pay 50 cents when the sun goes down and get a 4 cent credit for excess production in the afternoon along with a $32 bill each month, no matter what.
Our bill is likely to go from $13 this year to over $1,500 assuming we produce far more than we use from SDG&E.
Batteries will help. At least we won't give them almost free power. But the utilities don't care. While roof top solar is the best solution as it high in ROI and saves investment by the utility.But they can't charge folks. Their preference is big solar farms that they control.
Having to buy batteries isn't a good deal for the utility if they don't get the up charge on the power.
I'm hoping the prices will come down on batteries along with some tax credits.
