I started playing around with solar just for hobbyist/emergency preparedness type stuff and it's actually crazy how good and cheap the tech is now. With blackrock getting into the power grid business and datacenters driving up prices I'm considering investing in enough panels/batteries to run most of my daily power usage so the price hikes don't hit as hard later on.
Sound plan. I wish I had done so a decade ago before the global price hikes by the oil industry.
