Connecting home solar and electric vehicle batteries to the grid could boost South Africa’s clean energy and strengthen the electricity system
South African homes need two-way meters so that they can feed extra solar power from home systems and electric vehicles back to the grid.

@mrundkvist That's a suggestive question. You're hiding your assumptions in the question.

We took it for granted, but the amount of energy and costs needed to get that fuel useable and transported is extremely inefficient compared to solar>battery

from a quick research, a 7Kw Petrol generator needs approx. 3.2 tons of mined material. before it even makes a single Kw of energy. - no fuel..
the same material mining cost would build approx. 8Kw of solar panels (less inverters) and will start making energy pretty much immediately.

A quick addition: it seems to me that in the current international climate, building more 'in-house' power (solar, wind, etc) would give NZ greater independence. That energy independence could prove quite valuable down the road.

Solar/battery would foster the energy resilience and independence of everyday NZ'ers. It would alleviate the existing energy grid. It is our hard-earned tax dollars they are spending - we deserve a fair slice of the cake and decisions that benefit more than a few.

Put solar panels on state houses. You could probably do the lot for $1.5b, would reduce energy costs for those least able to afford it, increase our grid resilience and save about the same amount in energy costs overall.

We could have energy independence with cheap offshore wind and solar power. We could phase out fossil fuels and transition to a carbon free economy.
But not with these crapitalist bootlickers in charge.

What’s that then? Nuclear, tidal, solar, on shore wind, off shore wind, imported energy? Who is doing it? When? Changes to planning legislation, changes to infrastructure, training for the skills required? The ball has a long way to roll. Pictures with dogs is a great start.
