Yea, I got the satire. I guess my 1/4 house comment was too dry. Given how lithium batteries burn, it wouldn't be limited to 1/4 of the house. Not a NA product?, guess that's good in a way, for NA!
just making sure!!
removing panels and putting them back on is no big deal once the roof has been modified to support it…the footings to mount the panels are no different than any roof attachment - it's not $0 cost, but the panels are reasonably light, easy to disconnect and put back on...
if you're being forced to replace a roof that's the perfect time to "add" solar - solar install is 50% roofing job, 30% wiring/hookup for the panels, 10% panel install, 10% paperwork for "approvals" from local power company - if you're touching a roof and not considering installing solar you really should - in some cases the roof job might be eligible for the solar tax credits as part of the overall "solar" job -making the roof job cost less due to tax benefits.
Our house had a new roof installed a year before we bought it in 2022. IF this house had a basement and was our (in as much as anyone can forecast) forever home, I'd add solar but given we plan to sell within the year and look for a home that has a basement, it wouldn't be a good use of funds or time. Not having a basement feels like living in a shed. Our last home in PA had a beautifully finished basement with 10 foot ceilings, doric columns and judges paneling throughout. We miss that but that house sold much faster than we expected, and it was much harder finding something in the Triangle of NC so we settled.
this all makes perfect sense - Porsche's HEM is not available in NA and so far VW/Audi/Porsche have not announced V2G support or even hinted they understand it's a thing
That seems a contradiction, given the EU has a bigger push for connecting EVs to the grid. I'd think a German automaker would want to implement this, even if not in all markets. Tesla will continue to have an advantage until others realize how useful this is to the EV consumer.
though my VIN seems to be a luckyone in that it has managed to skip all of the battery recalls.
There is an issue no question. It’s also a large part of why Taycan has huge unsustainable depreciation. Unsustainable because much of the demand for new Taycans would have come from existing owners trading up to new models. However trading up for many Taycan owners will now be too expensive and depreciation issues threaten Porsche’s reputation for reliability dependability and engineering prowess. Ultimately Porsche can’t just be a fashion item it has to have great cars. The market will decide. The market may also in the future develop a solid state battery, CATL already has one. Imagine if you could upgrade your out of warranty battery for sensible non Porsche money ? At the moment this is too hard but in the future ?Well, it may be clickbait, but when you’re waiting for a recovery truck for the 2nd time in as many months, it is clear Porsche have a problem. If they don’t resolve these HV issues, they will have no brand credibility….
Well the problem with the Taycan is that she actually doesnt do everything you want when you want it. She’s more like a super model with a bad and unpredictable personality (like in real life).Kind of like marrying a beautiful model that does everything you want, but she keeps cheating on you...
