A kinda cool, accidental/pocket shot I took this morning.

Has anything slowed the energy transition more than the interconnection queue? Not even interest rates have been so devastating to goal of moving quickly and fixing things. www.thebaltimorebanner.com/economy/clea...

Not remembering all details from that research but I believe ACiQ white labels from both Carrier and their parent company, Brock Air Products, which appears to have multiple other brands (MRCOOL perhaps the best known). Oddly it seems they use Carrier both on the high and low end of performance.

Oops. I harvested too much sun last year. #solar #netmeter

Of course intellectually I understood the value of fully variable, inverter systems but to experience it IRL is a dream. Days above 80F this weekends and never budged more than 1F indoors.

Just installed last month. R32 Goodman, side discharge unit. Finally got gas totally out of the home.

Breadwinner.life is super cool. I know I'm a few years late, but congrats @fredbenenson.com on making a neat and helpful little product.

The bedroom is thankful for the first day with windows open in a long while.

I am always so tickled when the sun, hitting a few solar panels on my roof, can easily bake my bread.

I asked because Enphase micro-inverters will start to curtail above 140F, and roofs can get much hotter! This is why my installer went with a Solar Edge micro-optimizer, single inverter system. I would ask the installer to tell you why they think that won't happen. See datasheet.

I once again turn to this prophetic toot from the Mastoverse circa Nov 2021.

Snow finally melting off the rooftop solar panels. Just heard a thud of snow and saw the graph immediately reflecting it.

Guess which home air sealed and insulated their attic recently.

Goodbye 2024… I can close the books on my electricity consumption*: 1 mWh surplus was my gift to you and yours. Here’s to an even more efficient 2025!

*Heat still generated with methane and EV charged out of home for some miles.

Quick, let’s find the motherfuckers who did this and fire them immediately.

EV ownership up 35% YoY in Maryland. Still not fast enough. PHEVs more popular than I expected. Full report here: www.mdot.maryland.gov/OPCP/ZEEVIC_... #climate #ev

Based on the FF playoff round I’m now losing, a lot!

Doesn't pass the Turing test. Humans know this is too much sass. You just get the water. No reply needed.
