The questions you are asking are like playing Defense, The best Defense is a great Offense... A better question would be, How can I afford it regardless of the price? What can I do to increase my income to afford whatever I want? How much do I need to make a Year to live the life where I can buy...

The concept of getting a return on your Solar investments is only possible if you either sell your house and include the cost of the panel with profit or Getting paid for the Energy you sell back to the grid. So MicroFIT and Netmetering are "Connected" the same way. The only difference between...

If you can try to do it this year, You might be eligible to sign up for the MicroFIT program. It's more advantageous than net-metering and is only offer for a limited amount of time. Starting next year it will be only Net metering. I have good relationship with couple solar panels installers...

Thank you for clarifying that, what I'm really after is how much you pay for electricity overall, not just for the car but also for your whole house. Comparing data with the average Canadian is crucial for my study. Providing me only with how much you pay to drive doesn't help me very much My...

Thank you for your advice, I'll reach out to Plug and Drive and see what I can get from them. Again I'm not here to argue going electric is cheaper than gas...(this is a no-brainer...), In my point of view until we reach full energy abundance more study will always be needed... Following your...

From a business perspective, the GTA is my first customer segment, and I also live in the GTA so it will be easier for me to meet people if they are willing to meet me or save on long distance calls... At this point, I would rather not make any assumptions and allow the data to speak for...

Hello everyone, I am an Electrical Engineer currently working on a solution to help Home Owners reduce their energy expenses. In the province of Ontario, energy cost is relatively expensive compared to other provinces in Canada, and that motivated me to work towards Implementing an Idea and...

Isn't CAD weak every day?

I tried to start a conversation about this but it didn't get much traction...I'm happy to see someone is interested in it...I ask myself the same question since January...but I based my calculation differently...Basically, I estimate the capability of the current transformers installed in a...

Hi, I was wondering if someone having a level 2 charger for their tesla cars could help me clarify something. Do you know how is the charger connected in your house? Is there a breaker linked to the charger? Or is it straight from the grid? How about when you have a solar panel/Battery how...

I don't know why I'm always late for these events...Did you get a notice for it by email or something? I would have love to go there too...I was at the Oakville service center when they launched it...Yah it is a nice place.

Hi Could you talk a bit more about how you got the test drive? Did you rent a model S or was it like a schedule test drive from the tesla store? As for me, I've been experiencing what you are going through since last April. I too am a M3 Reservation holder since March 31st 2016. As of now I...

Ohhh I get it...So you buy the portable charger instead and you can use it any other place other than you home. But you might need another shield at the location you expect to charge if they don't have Level 2 chargers...But hey more business for you ;) Good idea and I Love the design of...

Are you behind developing this product? Ok...So the shield is covering the plug, but still allow connection to it...The tesla charger hanging down is that the portable charger you were referring too? Maybe I'm missing something but wouldn't buying a wall mount charger be more efficient? if...

2 - I didn't know about this and to me that's great news... 3/4 Producing the electricity for million EV is one thing, there is also the issue of delivering it to your door, and that's where the transformers comes in...There'll have to be some investments to updated them, because these...
