And congrats on moving into a house with a battery ! Exciting times !!

It also depends on the # of people in the house, if one has no dryer , no aircon or pool. (We have none of them). Faster, no doubt than if one uses all those.

Valid… completely valid !

* with the rebate…. Bluesky, can we edit please ? 😂

With Feed in Tarrifs of $22 per kWH you can see why arbitrage of electricity is fun (and rewarding !) 🔌💡

If you learn one climate change lesson today, please let it be this one.

And please teach it to someone else.

I am one of these households, we are doubling our battery from 9.6 to 19.2 kWh for functionally half price, ayer the rebate. Arbitrage of energy using Amber is my new hobby ! 🔌💡

Australia’s Courts Say Climate Change Is a Political Problem. The ICJ Just Made it a Legal Issue. As Australia’s courts rule yet again that climate is outside their jurisdiction, the ICJ made it a legal obligation for countries to act on the crisis.

Earlier this month Australia's courts declared climate change a political hot potato they couldn't touch. The ICJ just gave them permission to. @roycerk2.bsky.social on that story: drilled.media/news/icj-2

Dolly Parton & Taylor Swift are not rapists 🤷🏻‍♀️. So no, power & wealth does not always lead to that.

Ground breaking climate litigation !
