If we didn’t subsidize peak demand, every home would already have batteries.
We would have done it with lead acid if we had to.
Get rid of the subsidies and price manipulation. Markets work.
Jesse Peltan@JessePeltan· Nov 20, 2024We have two options:
1. Status quo
- subsidize peak demand
- costs spiral
- California everywhere
2. Accurate price signals
- load shifting
- distributed generation and storage
- better load factor
- lower costs
- better reliability
Inefficiency is a choice.
It's not a good
