Selfishly Solar - EVTV Motor Verks

The person in me who refuses to pay others for things I can do myself loves it. But very cost-prohibitive and the ROI gets harder to make work vs net metering. Especially if you're like me and have net metering with peaky production and a lot of under/over shoot.
In the future when the solar tax/ fees go up it might make more sense to go off grid.
