If the PoCo is paying you full retail for the power, the rest of the

Typical regressive democrat thinking. Tell poor people you are looking
out for them, then use their money to subsidize a guy rich enough to
cough up 30 grand. The fair price would be the interchange rate at
that time of day, not the retail rate.


The power is really generated during Peak Pricing time. So it is really
sold at time of day rate. I doubt the panels are productive at 3am even
with a street light by my house.


The problem is they are also paying you for their infrastructure. The
actual value of the electricity is far less than the retail price. In
most places where they don't have a regressive plan like yours they
only reimburse the value of the electricity they sell you, at the same
rate they would pay any other supplier.
