To: Tell It Right

You just happen to live in the lower third landmass of the USA where the sun is sufficient even in winter to supply most of your electrical needs. Those living in the other two thirds are not so blessed. For me, a golf cart would be enough of an EV except for the seven months of winter, where a heated ice vehicle is somewhat of a necessity. May I never need an EV, and have the means not to need one. From the upper third of the USA.

You and I speak the same language. Basically we're saying let the free market decide who gets what. I can't stand the Dims forcing solar and/or EV's onto people -- even though they work well for me most of the time.

In fact, I don't want solar implemented at the utility level, not even here where it'd work better. Because solar is not 100% guaranteed power. Solar is great from my home, but only because I have guaranteed power I can depend on from the grid when my solar isn't enough. Year round, that comes out to about 10% of the power I need having to be pulled from the grid (more in the winter, less in the summer). So solar works amazingly well for me -- but even I still need the utility power to be dependable power.
