I don’t understand why there’s no secondary option if Strait of Hormuz goes down. Obviously there are alternative routes out there but why big gas companies even governments did not see this coming. Are they okay losing billions? Or do they actually have a plan that ordinary people don’t know about?

    In the Netherlands people who use solar have to PAY to feed power to the network. It’s bat shit crazy.

        It’s kind of stupid, on the one hand they’ll pay you for the energy, on the other hand you have to pay for the grid load. Depending on your supplier and contract you could get a net price of 1 cent per kWh or more.
