> The federal government is spruiking a new scheme that will give millions of Australians up to three hours of free electricity each day.
(“Spruiking” is Australian/New Zealand slang for promoting something enthusiastically, often loudly.)
> Right now, huge amounts of midday solar power go to waste—most people aren’t home to use it, and we lack enough batteries to store it.
So... incentivise batteries. You'll get far more mileage in the long run.
> The idea is to encourage people to run air conditioners, washing machines, or dishwashers during this “free” window when the grid is awash with solar.
A handy way to pick up a new hobby: BTC mining, I guess.
