@statsguy@mas.to I wonder if anyone is working on a way to give/sell excess energy to local neighbors. I know nothing about this space from a feasibility perspective. But wouldn't that be a dream?

@Xoriff@hachyderm.io Yes, that would be awesome. But no idea if it's possible without some pretty major changes to the way we get our electricity.

@Xoriff@hachyderm.io @statsguy@mas.to „they” already worked it out - in many countries energy tax is excise. So selling or even giving away your solar energy to a neighbor is a crime.

@Xoriff@hachyderm.io @statsguy@mas.to I have heard of things for sharing EV car charging. https://greenfleet.net/news/13112020/app-launched-enabling-ev-charge-point-sharing If you combined that with the tech which allows you to power your house from your car, "vehicle to load"? then you'd have a crude way to achieve that
