Interesting thoughts. For our current grid-tied PV system we 'sell' excess electricity to the electric company and then buy it back at night or cloudy days. A couple of months in the spring and again in the fall our electric bill is $8.00. Nice A year ago our January electricity bill was $171.00. That was the highest bill than we had had for 10 years - a time before we added solar panels. A quick check with the NOAA website showed that the weather was not any colder a year ago than over the previous 10 years. I'm sure that the electricity company is just gouging the guy who has a PV system at his house. If I had not raised a fuss at the electricity company office I'm sure that more than the January bill would have been ridiculously high. There is constant effort to reduce or eliminate net metering in Louisiana. Our 'do as little as possible to help the people' government is of little help. They help the corporations, not the people.
