Why don't we get our drinking water by taking salt...
As a consumer, falling solar prices have not led to a noticeable decrease in my electrical bill.

At some point the price of the bill is dominated by the fixed transmission costs which won't go away as long as there is a power grid.

As a recent convert to solar, we no longer have any electric bill, period.

They haven't tried to bill you for "maintaining the grid" cost?

No, but hopefully they do soon, or tax me somehow. Having a grid is important.

What do you think the price would be without solar? The answer: higher.

sure, but only because they purposely exclude those that would be cheaper :)
