minus-squareHugucinogens@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up30·1 年前So… You can use it. As exactly described. By the description of the problem. Sorry for being snarky, but this is exactly what the “paying people to use your energy” part of this situation is.
minus-squareqjkxbmwvz@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkarrow-up8·1 年前Yep absolutely — a few kW? I can burn that no problem. A MW? Well…that takes a little more thought. A GW? That’s a whole different ballgame.
minus-squareNaz@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up5·1 年前Haha, thanks for taking my comment with humor and stride. Yeah, you’re right. I still think having too much energy is a good problem to have overall. I do microsolar and when my batteries are full (rare), I just unplug them. The solar panels just sit baking in the sun, and then cool off at night.

minus-squareNaz@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 年前It’s having a very small (typically less than 2 kW) solar system
