Oh, we pay about 12.5 eurocents ($0.16?) tax on every kWh we get from the grid.
That alone makes PV panels worthwhile, if optimally positioned.

Sadly, we don't get a tax revenue when we overproduce. So it makes little sense to go bigger than home use.
Which is another stimulating factor for EV's here... Causing more use, therefore allowing for bigger and more efficient PV installations. That, and gas being more expensive than beer by volume.

For confirmation go to people just like you.
For education go to people unlike yourself.
