@kudra I'm thinking about getting a battery. Fully electric house (EV, Induction cooktop, Heat pump)
The payback period seems too long to me for a battery, even with Amber's pricing.
Are you prepared to share your thoughts on this?
@andrijson Yeah, I have considered a battery too but even with the previous rebate in Vic (about $3000) and current interest free loan (about $8000) it still feels like it is too slow to payback, though if you automated a lot it could potentially earn quite well when FITs are high. I like the idea of battery more as backup as where I am blackouts are relatively common. But I am still on the fence!
