@Crell Any house that needs AC is somewhere hot, right? Or it wouldn't need AC in the first place?

So there's at least some sunshine, right? Or it wouldn't be hot?

So the AC is powered by the house's own solar panels, right? Because there is no conceivable reason why not. So, why should the city care how much you run your AC? You'll just be exporting a bit less power, on a day when there's more than enough power to go around anyway.

@TimWardCam @Crell friendly reminder that most people in cities rent our homes and many of us (probably most idk) live in apartment buildings ๐Ÿ˜• I'd use solar panels if I could
@raphaelmorgan @TimWardCam @Crell And in the meantime, those nice country folk donโ€™t want the big solar arrays situated near them because they ruin the view โ€ฆ
@mtconleyuk @raphaelmorgan @Crell My answer to that (I've been in the planning business as a councillor) is "if you want to keep your view the same then all you have to do is buy it and refrain from developing it (and hope that you don't get CPOd because development is in the overriding public interest.)"
