    SDG&E EV Climate Credit

    Will this include plugin hybrids, or only pure EVs?

    SDGE EV meter removal

    doesn't work in CA per Randy, right, since you can't get paid for exporting to the grid from battery?

    SDGE EV meter removal

    Randy...the solar is sized about 120% of my yearly usage, so it sounds like EV-TOU2 is better for me than EV-TOU5. However, I don't quite understand how "tiers" work with respect to solar+net-metering. I read that the higher tier kicks in when you're over 130% of the baseline. Is that net...

    SDGE EV meter removal

    Thanks Randy! Will follow up with you via PM for sure. I was dreading having to call back to SDGE and dealing with reps that don't know how to handle this. EDIT: someone from SDGE just called me and he was actually super knowledgeable (I didn't catch his name...so maybe it Randy?). Anyway, he...

    SDGE EV meter removal

    My installer (SolarMax) wouldn't help; they said from the onset they don't handle that. Other solar contractors I talked to during the quoting process said the same. Apparently having two meters is different/weird enough that they don't want to deal with it.

    SDGE EV meter removal

    I have two electric meter, one for the house (DR-Residential plan) and one for the Leaf (EVTOU). I just recently got solar, and from what I gather, with solar and net metering, it's more advantageous for the house and the ev charging to be on the same meter. I called SDGE describing what I want...

    SDG&E, Solar, Net Metering, and Time of Use 2 (TOU2)

    But from elsewhere I've heard, EV-TOU2 won't be as lucrative going forward for solar owners because SDGE is going to change the peak times, right?

    SDG&E, Solar, Net Metering, and Time of Use 2 (TOU2)

    Any to confirm, NEM 2.0 doesn't take place until 5% cap has been met, right? Another post I read implied that NEM 2.0 will be applied to all new solar customers after the Dec 15 2015 decision, but that doesn't sound right. And NEM 1.0 isn't subject to any of these new TOU/connection...

    SDG&E, Solar, Net Metering, and Time of Use 2 (TOU2)

    It was just the first quote I got (SolarCity). My house is as normal/standard as it comes. What's the going rate for a 4KW system installed these days?

    SDG&E, Solar, Net Metering, and Time of Use 2 (TOU2)

    Looks like still another month or so before the 5% solar cap is reached and new solar customers forced onto NEM 2.0. I'm looking more seriously into solar, as my monthly bill has increased due to the second meter EV rate increase several years ago, and the recent tier changes (4 tiers to 2)...

    EVs Blocking Charging Stations

    It's annoying when a parking lot is essentially full, but you see a EV parked in a regular spot and using the charging cable from the EV parking spot next to it. This essentially makes the EV parking spot useless because you can't park there unless you're charging. If a EV just parks in the EV...

    Is $3.8 per watt a good deal?

    Sounds high to me. is that before or after tax credits?

    I bought the new mountek one that gets wedged above the navigation screen: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004G1L52Q/?tag=myelecarfor-20&" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; It blocks view of the screen, which I find annoying when using the backup camera. It's too bad, because it's...

    I'm a leaf on the wind!!!

    Glad to know that people get the reference! My last Leaf's name was "Wash", but it got crushed by a falling tree earlier this year, in a manner not unlike how Wash died on the show. Oops. I bought a new 2015 Leaf , and decided to name her "Zoë" for her badass resilience :) My license plate is...

    Weird "boing" sound when driving forward after reversing

    Ah, thanks. Just found this thread. Never thought I'd have to search the word "boing" on this forum :). http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=8572&hilit=boing" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

    Weird "boing" sound when driving forward after reversing

    After reversing (backing out the drive way), within a few seconds of forward driving, I always hear a metallic spring sound (a "boing /doing" sound). No adverse effects it seems, but curious what might be causing it. Any ideas?

    VPP and $3500 Cash back 0% APR ?

    my net cost was $19,600, not around $15k. I think the $15k number is possible if you choose the base trim with no optional packages, which is about $4k cheaper than the one I got. But everything else you said was correct. To be absolutely clear, I grabbed my sales contract and this is what it...

    VPP and $3500 Cash back 0% APR ?

    Northbay Nissan. Also, 12% below MSRP (far below invoice) in addition to any other incentives. No need to haggle. And they will ship the car to you if you're not local (they shipped it to San Diego for me for $880). http://www.northbaynissan.com/leaf-pricing.htm"...
