I live in Wisconsin where solar power is not great, but because costs have come down it is now close to being cost effective and I was looking at buying a system that would effectively cut my costs in half for 15-16k after tax credits. But after reviewing my house east/west facing rooftop and several nearby trees my solar potential was unfortunately deemed to be poor.

SRP does allow you to switch to Time of Day pricing so you could offset your air conditioning costs and then only draw electricity at the off peak rates. They also have installation incentives and there may be state/federal tax credits.
Fuck you. Seriously. The downfall of my country is not just another dysfunctional reality show.
By the way how is the weather there? Cost of living? Employment opportunities? Government Corruption? I could really use a change of pace.
Because electric cars can (and should) be charged at night, they do not add to peak loads. Excess nighttime capacity will be sufficient to charge electric vehicles for quite some time. Additional renewable resources such as wind power will help to bolder nighttime grid capacity.
"It’s estimated that 75 percent of the 250 million vehicles on our highways could be charged at night on the current electric grid – without any new power plants"

Good luck buying gas for only $4 a gallon in 10 years.
Also many utilities will allow you to switch to time of day billing and charge at off peak rates. My utility charges only 6.5 cents per kWh off peak.
You are correct. I have a reservation for a leaf and the last time I went to cracker barrel was over 10 years ago.
