[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean there are also reasons to buy an EV that have nothing to do with the environment.  I've gotten poop, gum, spit and other disgusting things on my hands using gas pumps.  I just charge my EV at home so that doesn't happen with that car.[/quote]

Yeah, one of the biggest reasons I got an EV was I got solar on my roof and was running a credit every month. Pepco won't refund you the difference and I needed a new car anyway so it was win-win. I got a Model 3 and any other car I was looking at was going to be in that price range anyway, this way I get free "gas" and loads better acceleration than anything else in that price range. The environmental benefits are great but I'd have done it for the financial and performance benefits alone.  [/quote]

Pepco won't refund overages? When we installed solar in ~2015 they did in DC. We no longer own that home, but that is news to me.[/quote]

Maybe I wasn't clear - they will give you a bill credit, but if your panels consistently overproduce all that ever happens is your negative bill gets bigger and bigger. You can't "cash out" and have them send you a check for your negative balance. [/quote]
