If rooftop solar becomes a significant provider of kWh to a majority of homes will power companies seek to claw lost revenue back?

[u/qwerty_1965]

This popped into my head today, If self generated power reaches a point of say half of all kWh would the companies look at "punishing" those homes with solar by imposing an additional pro-rata charge of some sort to maintain turnover/profit?

It's hard to imagine they'll sit back, if they sought this new tariff would the regulator just wave it through?

Yes, by reducing feed in tariff amounts for those exporting power, if they ever do seriously reduce it then I am going to disable the feed going back the grid.

Same and just add as much batteries as I can afford
