  • To give a bit of context :

    • the previous government (prime minister and the other ministers) drafted a budget proposal last summer that was widely unpopular among the population and most deputies in the national assembly.
    • the previous prime minister asked for a vote of confidence, lost the vote of confidence so the whole government resigned
    • Macron appoints a new prime minister, this new prime minister promises a new policy line that will break with the old government.
    • After 26 days, the new prime minister reveals the name of the new ministers that will form the new government. It’s mostly the same names as before.
    • 15 hours later he resigned, so the new government is dissolved.








  • I disagree, but in not in your situation so I can be wrong.

    Unless you are producing way, way more electricity than you can use I think net metering is a great arrangement for the customer. (Not so much for the utility company)

    The electricity is usually bought by the utility company at a much lower cost than what the customer is paying. Because the generation cost is only a percentage of the cost, there is taxes, maintenance of the grid …

    For example in France we pay 0.1952€/kWh, but the utility is buying the solar electricity produced by household at 0.04€/kWh.

    Meanwhile with net metering your electricity is virtually bought at the same price as what you are buying your electricity for.
