Using excess energy from renewable sources harms only the user's wallet, instead of the whole world.
Unless the electricity comes from renewables...
You still need to generate the energy in the first place.
This won't solve anything, you're just moving the non-renewable energy usage to all the consumers
You cant reuse the electricity you have already burned...
If all the power eventually comes from renewables. Is it still wasteful?
Not everywhere burns fossil fuels to produce electricity though.
I thought that was energy production.
Then it's still using up renewable energy that could have been used on something else. Electricity is mostly fungible.
Yeah, that's not creating energy.
