    V2G for power regulation

    This is just for anyone interested in one homeowner's electric consumption data, not meant to be typical. I have been collecting monthly electricity use data on my house in the SF Bay coastal area (no A/C) since 1997. Back then it was 1,800 sq. ft., and I averaged 8,600 kWH per year...

    How Exactly Will The Tax Credit Work

    I have read every post on this thread, and am still confused as to the full value of the $7500 credit. The two 2009 IRS forms I have each mention a credit of UP TO $7500, and the 8834 "Qualified Plug-in Electric and Electric Vehicle Credit" seems to specifically limit the credit to $2500 per...
