Waldo JaquithThis is brilliant. In Germany, it's popular to buy €200 solar panel / inverter combos that plug into a nearby power outlet, feeding the power back into the grid, running their power meter backwards. "Installation" just takes a minute. Folks in apartments simply hang them from their balcony “like wet laundry.” Over 500,000 have been sold. With power at €0.25/kWh, the payback time is about 27 months—after that, it's just free electricity. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/29/business/germany-solar-panels-climate-change.html?unlocked_article_code=1._E0.zL83.1FCeoxOrFDBY&smid=url-share
diesUndDasMitTassen 🇺🇦@waldoj "Reverse rotation" only happens if it is an old mechanical meter. However, many new digital meters have been installed in recent years (they shall all to be replaced). These new meters measure feed-in and consumption, and count it up. If you are using a so called balcony power station with only 600Wh (a new law will allow 800) and not consumpting all energy produced, you will give it away to the grid.
