*achieved dammit
Since I seem to be incapable of not graphing data, I've graphed my solar generation and electric usage in the three years since I've had my panels- they are quite satisfying curves
Nice! Have done this too 😀 Will post it when I get back to my laptop
My parents in germany are down to an electricity bill of around 5 euros a month for a large house, including 2 electric cars. Used to be 150.
That’s impressive! Solar take up is still extremely low here, and our government naturally has reduced the grants available
