RE: Терапевтична праця

in Ukraine on Steemlast month

Yes, our system actually runs independently of the grid if the worst comes to the worst. Well, at least we'll have electricity when the sun is shining and with a bit of luck the battery will also be a little full. So please don't have a long power cut in winter...

I have to say that only one socket is constantly supplied with power by the system. We would therefore need extension cables and power bridges. Large power guzzlers like an oven can't be connected to it. However, the induction hob would work.
And the small wood-fired oven would work anyway... ;-)

And of course the system is connected to the main power supply. So any surplus energy (once the battery has been topped up) actually goes to the grid. For a few cents (the electricity purchase is five times as much). It's not worth it, it's not a business. Especially as you would even have to pay income tax on it from a certain system size...

There is nothing nicer than having lighting when all the surrounding neighbors don't have it 😆

it's not a business

Before the war, there was an interesting program in Ukraine called the "green tariff". If a person installed solar panels and generated electricity, the state bought this electricity at a higher price than the market value. This led to a real boom in solar generation. The idea was not bad. I do not know what is happening with this program now, I know that it was temporarily suspended.

😕 Maybe your country was in a hurry with taxes, maybe they should have encouraged people to install solar generation first. 🤔

You have summarised the entire discussion about the ecological-economic situation in Germany in one sentence... ;-)

It's a tragedy. Only idealists or very rich businessmen with a lot of land or land they can lease invest in solar plants. That is a pity.
Politicians are ‘reacting’: Possibly solar systems are to become mandatory for new buildings. In that case, however, only a few ‘normal families’ will be able to afford their own home. Not funny either...

I worked with German colleagues who came to us to help start new factories, and we went to Germany for internships. I want to say that despite all the difficulties, there is a lot in Germany that we would like to see in our country. However, the fact that the cost of living in Germany is much higher is obvious. Taxes are high. I was visiting an engineer with whom we became friends, and he told me something about life in Germany. He lived in Dortmund. However, it is worth noting that his income was much higher than the average German. Tax policy is very subtle and tax increases do not always lead to increased revenues. Sometimes taxes can stifle an industry. But you know this very well, why am I telling you this 😄
