The long term consideration is when one gets rid of the middleman in daily energy use, one will save money to use somewhere else in their budget.

In places like California where there is an appetite for SGIP and VPP aggregation, one could use such a system as grid services with a PPA with the local utility that could actually pay for the asset sooner than later. Just sayin’, the futures so bright, I got to wear shades.
