PAY ME ? Getting paid when things aren't needed is hmmmmm!
"Victoria's Essential Services Commission has released its draft decision on the minimum rate electricity retailers must pay solar customers for the electricity they export into the grid — known as a feed-in tariff.
The ESC has proposed dropping the rate to 0.04 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh) from the current 3.3 cents starting July 1, 2025.
The Commission has also recommended a time-varying feed-in tariff, which is a rate that varies depending on the time of day.
Those rates range from 0 cents to 7.5 cents per kWh.
A varying rate would incentivise solar customers to export electricity when demand is high, rather than when the grid is already saturated with supply.
It means customers will earn much less than they have been for supplying electricity to the grid and it could discourage people from installing solar panels and also increase demand for home batteries.

The subsidies for Solar are fine if its used and effective. The too much at some times and not enough most of the time is not fine in my thoughts
