    Rooftop solar causes some issues for the grid and especially with every person getting their own battery it’s not very efficient.

    On rural properties it would make sense to mandate them, but it would also be political suicide.

      Aren’t the issues it causes mostly because the grid was designed to deliver power from plants?

      I mean, aren’t they solvable problems?

        I wouldn’t really know. I just know there’s some kind of issue with that.

        And regardless it’s true that it’d be a waste of resources to duplicate a “margin-for-error” on every single house to ensure the fridge keeps running all year round.
