> Incidentally, why are all those panels centrally connected anyway? I’d like to know what my panels are doing, but you don’t need the internet for that. This is because of the market for carbon credits. When you installed your PV panels, someone estimated how much electricity they would generate over the next 10-15 years. Tradable carbon credits were created based on that estimate and went into the marketplace. And for the next 10-15 years they have to verify that the electricity was actually generated, or else someone has to pay back some money. Did you read the fine print on your contract? It is probably you that has to pay it back. You didn't know that one of the "rebates" you got was actually a pre-payment for those credits?!? Should have read the fine print ;) Oh yeah, BTW: that "rebate" was only your portion of the credits. The installer got some of it (and doesn't have to pay back anything), the person that filled out the paperwork you didn't know existed got some (and doesn't have to pay back anything)... |
