That’s some hella expensive electricity you’re buying there. I’m getting mine at 14 cents/kWh, which is roughly 1.2€/W per year. This isn’t even close to the cheapest option available.
Here in California our utility keeps burning down entire towns so now we pay $.60-$.70 per kW/h. It’s insane. They still don’t maintain infrastructure, they just pass on the cost of lawsuits.
Yea rooftop solar here got so popular because of the pricing which means they decided to cut the rates that they will pay you for generation. So in the same instant they will charge you $.70 to draw power but only give you $.12 for power fed back in during the same time period.
You know what, you’re right. Idk what the fuck I was thinking. I must have misremembered the math from the last time I did it.
I swear I did the math like a year ago and it added up, but that’s clearly a false memory. It’s closer to $1 per watt per year. I downvoted my own comment

Sheesh, we went from .129 to .189 and I got rooftop solar in protest (which is only going to burn my own house down).

It could’ve been closer to the truth in 2022. At least in Europe when the energy prices skyrocketed I think I paid closer to 1€/kWh.
Maybe it was 2022. Working from home has fucked my perception of time.
