I wouldn’t say it’s meaningless, but with the increased cost of almost everything, it’s admittedly a drop of water in the ocean.
I’m grateful, I had a home built in 2021 and installed solar and battery on it, so two major fluctuating and rising costs (rent and electric) are non-issues for me. It goes a long way towards stability, financially speaking.
Yikes. My solar setup is pretty close to net-zero usage (generally covers between 98% to 102% of my usage year to year), and my county does net metering so at most I have a connection fee and one small partial bill annually.
Admittedly, the initial buildout was pricey ($33k), but tax subsidies were still in place at the time and after the rebates the cost was only $22k. Was worth it, since it was more for ensuring stable power during outages since I work from home. The monthly power billing was an afterthought, but nice nonetheless.

Started around $2 per carton went as high as $9, now back to $4-5. It looks like savings unless you look a little further back.
