| Oceania too: Australia installed 442 MW of residential solar and 2.5 GWh of residential batteries in the month of April alone. Both numbers are partly juiced by changes to a rebate program from May, but the overall trend remains explosive growth. https://reneweconomy.com.au/households-still-going-big-on-so... |

| very jealous of how cheap AUS solar prices are. < $1 AUD per watt after rebate |

| ▲ | BLKNSLVR 2 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Don't be jealous of our peak power price though: $0.56/kWh (I have a battery though, so I rarely pay full tote - which is one of the reasons I got a battery) | | |
| ▲ | greendave an hour ago | parent | next [-] | | Not jealous but that’s no worse than much of California (assuming those were USD you quoted, not AUD). | | |
| ▲ | Andaith 10 minutes ago | parent [-] | | I'd have assumed it was AUD, and even then it's high. I pay 0.28/kWh AUD in Sydney. That'd be 0.2/kWh USD. |

| ▲ | WillPostForFood 2 hours ago | parent | prev | next [-] | | Average price is $0.19 in the US. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/APU000072610 | | |
| ▲ | glaucon 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | Which is pretty much what Australian average price is. Average Australian domestic tariff is around AUD 0.30/kwh which is USD 0.21/kwh. None of this touches on standing charges, I don't know how that works in the USA, in Australia for an average household it runs at AUD 1.00/day to AUD 1.50/day (USD 0.70/day to USD 1.00/day). For an average household the standing charge is going to add 15 to 20% to the tariff. | | |
| ▲ | Loughla 2 hours ago | parent [-] | | I'm assuming that standing charges are like meter fees here. I've paid as low as $0.25/day and as high as $1.25/day depending on where I lived. There's not much uniformity. |
