Energy affordability woes are pushing all six states to advance legislation allowing DIY, plug-in solar panels. A bill is even nearing the governor’s desk in Maine.

Been talking to someone with a full house solar/battery setup and it's actually looking probably more cost effective to go with that instead. Though my usage is low so it may take a while to pay for its self. May well be able to get to pretty much no grid usage.

My peak usage in winter is just under 750kWh over a month, or 25kWh a day on average. Summer goes as low as 220kWh a month. Got some plans to hopefully lower the winter peak usage too.
