Hi @CaCahill,
I moved your follow-on post into your original topic and note your interest in solar has not been addressed as you had hoped.
Each electricity plan explicitly shows how much FiT it pays for solar inputs. Is there something else that is missing?
Would it be how solar plans have higher base charges than non-solar? That is a game for utilities to market what are essentially false ‘savings’. Raise the price and offer the FiT - eg the customer does not really get the perceived benefit of the FiT.
Yet those of us with solar have dramatically lower bills (mine is 20-25% of pre-solar) and in places like Alice nothing but ongoing credits build and build.
Would a ‘study’ calling out the worst of them having higher solar pricing be more informative than comparing how much electricity will cost, all inclusive? eg the Victoria or other energy compare sites (not so much the comparison sites owned or funded by utilities that are actually marketing exercises) include the impacts of solar inputs in their comparisons.
If you could advise what you are looking for in the ‘study’ that is missing, perhaps we can answer it in the Community or flag it to Choice staff?
If your interest is in how to size a solar system, there are topics like
discussing that.
