EV-PV, plug-in cars pay for rooftop solar systems

If you could buy a plug-in EV, your solar rooftop PV system would be self-financing. The money you used to spend on burning gasoline and creating pollution would instead pay for the PV hardware on your roof.

It appears that using solar panels to power your home, car, etc. is a great idea, but to do all that, wouldn't you need even more solar panels which would result in even more up-front cost? And depending on how much you use the panels and what for, do the savings actually out weigh the costs? Also, at what point do you come out ahead financially? I'm not shooting these ideas down. I just want to know, and ask the right questions. I enjoy your vids and thanks for responding to previous comments.

The return-on-investment of putting up solar panels to power the home alone is 9% to 11%, making the amortized cost of solar less than your current electric bill.

If you use the electric to power an EV, and thus displace gasoline purchases, the ROI is higher than 30%, meaning you pay off the system in less than 3 years. Our system paid for itself 5 years ago.

Thanks for this video liveoilfree. There is so much conspiracy fruitloop crap on YouTube I hate having to watch it everytime I search electric cars or energy related subjects. I was a little skeptical about your EV car kill-off claims at first because there is HUGE money to made by selling a long range plug in all electric. However....

There's MORE money to be made by selling oil, and there's still a lot of oil to be sold. And think of the industries that would be affected by EVs, from the DEALER-NETWORK to tune-up, muffler, parts, brake shops, Midas, the SMOG shops...not to mention oil drilling, refining, oil wars, spills, cleanups...a lot of people whose jobs will change.

To hell with Chevron!

You confirmed my suspicions. Its sad that

the people that want to buy electric cars are not allowed that choice. I ordered the Tango T100. Woodbury needs funds to start mass producing this model.

now in the U.S. the fed has released its 2k cap on the rebate so for my system i'll get 4800 back from the fed and @ 4d.p.w. from the state i'll get back 10,320 so i'll have around 1k out of pocket. with about a 60-80 d.p.m. savings i'll see my return much faster!

Disinformation is right. The Defense Department uses UFO sightings as cover for their R&D. Remember all those cigar shaped UFO sightings just before the stealth bomber went mainstream?

Yep, it's ALWAYS about the money. I believe if you can follow the money trail you will find the truth eventually. The after sales auto service is big profits for the car companies so i'm sure they are reluctant to give up that cash cow. I believe they make more on service than on selling the car in the first place.

Aptera is the name, built in California, but using Lithium batteries so kind of expensive. So far, they have not yet delivered, but we're hoping they will be real.

The CIA calls it "disinformation", clustering dozens of stories around the truth so that the casual reader has to pick out the truth amonst the fruit-loops.

Well, there are many answers to our energy issues, but the only ones that were crushed by Big Oil are CNG and Electric cars. The rest, about air and water cars, free energy, etc., is just disinformation.

...continued. Well, the lightbulb finally lit up after watching this video as it makes total sense that it's all about preventing the use of fuel savings to finance solar and going off grid and off oil completely. The financial cost to oil companies would be staggering.
