    Solar in winter for high latitudes is never gonna work, fully agree on that.

    But at some point a hybrid system will be cheaper for part of the year than a pure gas system, at any latitude.

    Whether it justifies the investment is indeed a cost/benefit analysis.

    Downvoting on Lemmy is toxic, fully agree on you there. It really stifles healthy discussion. It seems Lemmy is engineered by communists who only want agreement lol. 😂
