Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them
artyom@piefed.social 2 weeks agoit was already pointed out they auto shut off
And I already pointed out that that’s not a given.
which regulated by whats allowed to be sold
And I already pointed out that that’s not correct. In fact most equipment that’s sold does not do that.
anyone could put a non legal thing that feeds energy into the grid even if they jury rigged it themself.
Yes, people can do all kinds of things that are illegal. That doesn’t mean we stop making them illegal.

exactly. So people could put power into the grid now and the laws would allow it with approved equipment that meet the requirements like auto shutoff whichi legally would certainly be a given. Could something else be plugged in that did not have it. sure. but that would be illegal same as doing it before its allowed. I really don’t understand how you do not understand this.

I really don’t understand how you’re not getting this.
Once again, no one is verifying the equipment is approved.
Once again, no it’s not.
Yes and the proposed legislation seeks to take away the utility provider’s ability to ensure the equipment is legal and safe for use.
If your strategy is just to repeat the same nonsense over and over then I’m not going to continue engaging with you.

Where are you getting that no one is verifying the equipment is approved and no it does not need to be the utility provider any more than, as I said, they need to sign of on fridges and stoves.

Okay so you’re going to stick to repeating the same nonsense over and over. Goodbye.
