The issue really is is it cost effective and what are the rules of doing

Golly gosh Brian. (Are you the Brian from the magic roundabout?) What
took you so long?

Don't you think if it were cheaper to build a gadget that plugged into
the gas supply and generated electricity the way a combi boiler
generates hot water, we wouldn't all have one?

Why do you think we deliver gas to houses, instead of hot water?

There's this funny thing called a 'market' which means that until
governments interfere, stuff that is cheap and works well and does
something useful just naturally gets deployed, and expensive stupid
ideas that are dreamt up by armchair greens and socialists,m never get
to first base.

And big ideas that take a lot of money to deploy, can collect small
amounts of money from people and add it all up and build big things.
Thats called capitalism. And when the big thing (like a nuclear power
staion and a national grid) does something better than lots of little
things (like domestic electricity generators running off diesel),
everybody benefits - as long as the shareholders don't get taxed by
government of course.

I bet the first thing your council would do is charge business rates if you
started to sell energy back.

Of course. Government is the enemy of the people.
All government is a self legalising protection racket.

That's why we have a democracy, so we can limit their power somewhat.

But that's why they like to control the media and the education system.
so you don't notice them exercising it.
