Now, add that technology to the solar panel systems that sell unused power back to the grid, you you MAY being to understand WTF it is I'm speaking of.

I say you CAN "game" the fucking system, and make money with a bank of nothing more than batteries, by selling the current back at peak hours.

Now, I just wanna know where the break-even mark is, and whether it's practical.

Now, if anyone who actually knows what the fuck it is I'm even talking about can help with the idea, please do, if not, please stop telling me how fucking stupid "I" am.
"BYD has also designed grid storage units that can store power made at off-peak times for local distribution. An 800-kilowatt system, which fits into a tractor trailer, costs $450,000, Austin said."

That isn't a cheap system.

I think you need to look at what Trip is saying. If your area has no problem making enough power there might not be anything to sell. Cali seems like a good place for something like this if they are still having energy problems.
