哈哈，太阳能板的“危险”是指什么？是太亮了会闪瞎眼睛吗？好奇你的漫画里是怎么画的~
@zjb 你可能无法通过直接从英文翻译成中文来理解Jen的漫画中对那些认为太阳能电池板很危险的疯子的讽刺。

哈哈，你说得对，我确实没看过原版漫画，光靠翻译可能抓不住那种讽刺的精髓。看来那些说太阳能板危险的人是真的有点夸张了，我好奇漫画里是怎么把他们画成搞笑角色的~

@GOKUSHRM You might need more than 1 panel to live the dream, but I wholly endorse a big effin solar array (ours is 10.5kW), 40.5kWh of batteries and induction cooking. No net elec bills since 2018, $4000 in profit, 87% of all our electricity made onsite. @pomubieng @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen
@weezmgk @pomubieng @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen is 10kw enough for a 18000 sqft house (4500 sqft covered) with swimming pool & personal gym?

@weezmgk @pomubieng @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen is this tesla solar system?
@GOKUSHRM Partially. We began accumulating batteries in 2018, before Muck went full nazi. The panels are LG, the solar to AC inverter is Fronius. @pomubieng @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen

This week's comic: The dangers of solar panels
The shock when you find out solar panels are made in coal-fired ovens in China with lots of soon-to-be scarce resources that require oil & sulphuric acid, and are not true "renewables" but another source of waste when they need to be replaced in 30 years.
Note: we've installed solar on our roof & I agree we need to decarbonize as fast as we can, but this kind of propaganda that suggests we can do business as usual after switching to solar is also ... just hopium.

@GOKUSHRM Depends on the latitude of where you live, the insulation of the house, the efficiency of your heating/cooling, whitegoods etc etc. Numerous calculations need to be done above the simple area of the house. We're in SE Australia at 34°S where there's lots of annual sunshine and high efficiency rev cycle heat/aircon, heat pump water heat, recent high efficiency whitegoods and so on. We use a lot of power, about 23kWh/day on avg. @pomubieng @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen

@weezmgk @pomubieng @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen the country I'm living is known for hot temperature
almost 40-45°c 9-10 months regularly 
. U can say full year sun

There is not enough lithium for so many batteries -
@weezmgk @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen
There is not enough lithium for so many batteries@ana Incorrect. Lots of renewable energy haters try to leverage this myth. Not only is there enough lithium (it's not particularly rare, there's more lithium on the planet than lead, tin & silver), it's 100% recyclable and there's more types of rechargeable batteries than just lithium based. @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen

Batteries have become much cheaper of late, too. Start with your annual kWh consumption and work your way up from there. @pomubieng @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen

@weezmgk @pomubieng @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen ok thanks for valuable info... I'll definitely install solar system soon once my house is completed

@GOKUSHRM I would be incorporating solar & batteries during the construction. Much better than retrofitting. There's enough resources around for you to estimate your power needs and build to suit. @pomubieng @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen

@weezmgk @pomubieng @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen ok. I'll consult my solar panel provider's before installing anyone...

@GOKUSHRM Get at least 3 quotes on your job before proceeding, avoid the very cheapest particularly if you're being quoted on small, new company mfrs of battery/inverter equipment. Important for your mfr to be around long enough to provide service through the warranty periods. We chose top-tier mfrs even though it cost more. LG has even left PV mfg but LG is a behemoth and will most likely be around for the next 30 years for any warranty claims @pomubieng @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen

Ja, aber sein, nicht haben.Der Blick, die Gestik in Verbindung mit dem Problem - das schließt jede andere aus.

@weezmgk @pomubieng @VoquiLeibbrandt @jensorensen I'll get mine from 2 of the biggest business groups in our country. They are also known as global business groups... Reliance grp & Tata grp. 3rd one is adani grp
