The generation records keep falling month over month and year over year. The next evolution is to get rid of onerous, abusive programs like California’s NEM 3.0 and actually find the “real value” of residential grid tied solar PV, now with an adder of residential energy storage as part of the system from now on. At the residential, small business, commercial and even light industrial arena, adding resiliency and usable arbitrage for every captured kWh each day makes a difference in the way the adopters generate, use and even sell energy during the day. For instance someone with a 60kWh home battery pack could use 80% of that pack each day allowing 6kWh to 9.6kWh for a few hours each day during a TOU rate spiking period and actually cut their energy bill by up around 50% during TOU rate periods. The next test will be in August of this year when the ‘new’ Biden tariffs are raised on many goods being fed to the supply chain or coming from China as finished goods.
