I don't think it's valid to work on 3000km/year, it was actually nearer to 4 times that according to China Transport: Average Distance: Passenger | Economic Indicators | CEIC (ceicdata.com) Even at the height of Covid. You need to divide your figures by 4.

Exactly! and that is my point. It is not about Ukrainians, but most of the crime type posts begin "Russians and Ukrainians..." It's almost impossible for Ukrainians to get here, there are no flights, all able-bodied men are forbidden from leaving the country etc etc

Here is another way to calculate it. If the operating life of the solar system is 30 years, and ROI is in five years, then, across the 30 year operating life, the cost per kilowatt hour is one sixth of what it would normally be, so, in my case, it’s about 0.65 baht per kilowatt hour.

Their data came from Phuket Immigration, which you would know if you bothered to click the link

I appreciate your opinion, but we will just have to agree to disagree

I accept that is one way of looking at it. I don't look at it that way because I put solar in for my house, then my EV arrived, I never sized my solar system for my EV. I charge my EV on sunny days because it's using energy that would otherwise by lost because 1 or 2 of my 3 inverters would shut down.

I do have the Admin password and change all the parameter's on my MUST Grid-Tied inverter.

How can it have a cost if it’s surplus?

The statistics are that your EV is more than 10 times less likely to catch fire compared to your ICE vehicle.

The Thaiger gives figures from the top (Russia) down to 11 times smaller, Ukraine is not even on the list. https://thethaiger.com/hot-news/tourism/international-tourism-2022-11-5-million-foreign-arrivals

Lots of statistics out there on top arrivals by nationality, Russia is No.1, Ukraine doesn’t even appear in the list.

I exceeded the number of free lookups when I went back to get the page.

Statista.com Actually I researched this about 5 months ago when I read an article that Russians and Ukrainian’s were causing trouble, it was a biased article, at the time none of the arrests were Ukrainians.

Actually the statistics on arrivals say that the ratio is about 50 to 1 in Russians to Ukrainians.

The inverters raise the voltage of their output in an attempt to push their power out to the grid. I was surprised they don't simply wind down their gain as they approach the max grid voltage parameter so as not to exceed it. I couldn't find any other setting that might help. I would love to have them sit close to max grid voltage parameter and not exceed it and error.

You could say that about any type of car.

In my case it is the max grid voltage parameter which is being exceeded.

My 3 Grid-Tied inverters do not behave as you describe. They will attempt to produce as much power as they can from the available sunlight, and if I am not consuming it in the house and the grid is too weak to take it, the voltage will climb until it hits the limit and error. The they restart after a minute and the process repeats. In my inverters, the settings are available to change and I have cadenced them so that Inverter 1 first shuts off, Inverter 2 is set 1 volt higher, Inverter 3 is set yet another volt higher.

Fair enough but I view my EV charging as free, because if I charge it or don't charge it on my solar, the cost is the same. And I didn't install my solar intending to charge an EV, I bought the EV afterwards.

Correction, higher numbers than that and we need to have a closer look at these moronic gadgets again

Marginal vs. Absorbtion, total opposites but both acceptable accounting principles.

I don't think you read my initial post. I only park in those spots IF all the other spots are taken. So how would the disabled person park nearer to the door when all the spots are taken?

Actually, that depends on the accounting principles applied to that calculation.

What I do think is crazy is that the disabled spot at my local 7/11 is furthest from the door, any disabled driver is going to park closer to the door if they can and leave the disabled spot empty.

Perhaps because I am gay.
