I had a phone call from a mate today asking for advice on buying an off grid solar system for his new house in suburban Melbourne. He was pissed off about paying the daily grid connection charge when his solar system was easily going to produce more power than he used. A typical grid connection charge is about $1 per day.
So what is the extra cost of getting completely off the grid with your solar system in the city compared to a standard grid connect solar system?
