RE: Power Companies having Trap Plans
It's a complicated system because it's a merger of two technologies. If the solar-powered systems could provide enough battery space/life to their customers, they might not need to plug into the grid at all. This would reduce the number of customers on the grid, but it would also remove the responsibility for the utility company to maintain those houses.
In the meantime, it's a muddled mess. But for the record, those prices are still lower than a lot of places. Enjoy the cheaper power!
There have been people that have completely gone off the grid, and to my knowledge the power company is okay with that they have a issue with the people who use the grid, but only pay like 5 bucks a month. And now like 1 in 20 houses have solar power in my neighborhood, so it is really starting to become a problem for them.
