Thanks to the sun, last month our Leaf cost us nothing to run... Last October, when we had no Leaf, our solar made less money then this October when we used the Leaf almost daily. Effectively it cost us nothing to run it compared to last year. That would be true even with the carbon tax (the carbon tax hardly made a difference, let alone $500 as Abbott claimed!)
I guess on the flip side, climate change is visible every year on our solar account. The interesting part is that fossil fuel investments will lose out as the climate changes and clean energy will make more and more money. Divest from fossil miners/users/burners before it is too late! It is still all priced on the basis that nothing will have to change!

My LEAF costs nothing to run for about 9 months of the year. Unfortunately there is a shadow over half my solar panels in the winter so I have to draw a bit from the grid then.

Completely agree. All this new investment in coal right when the rest of the world is desperate to wean itself of it ASAP.
