TIL that #solarPanels also have bad consequences :D

@valhalla i can recommend vacuuming the house or baking cake/casserole?
For the advanced users: Charging the EV or Water heating via heatpump@tk honestly, ironing clothes is less of a chore than vacuuming :D (we usually do it a bit at a time with a rechargeable vacuum)
(and baking, considering a number of food restrictions, would have required too much prep time, ending up happening after the peak of electricity production)
(heat pumps for water heating have been postponed to “when we can save a bit more money for it, and hopefully the prices will have gone down a bit, because right now all of the quotes we're getting are (probably oversized but) extortionate”)

@tk (water heating was / is integrated with heating water for the radiators, and changing *that* would have required too much work and expense. the quote for an air-water heat pump were, as I said, extortionate, so we added air-air heat pumps, but they are sized to work *together* with the radiators, not instead of them)
(one day we'll have a fully electric house, but it will need to happen through gradual changes)
(and yesterday, since the sun was shining and there was some warm wind, it was a bit too warm to turn on the heating anyway)
