    These figures are just for March, too! Just how much higher April’s figures will be?

    There was also a bit of a run on solar home batteries here in Australia (somewhat related, but also due to a reduction in rebates from May 1st) - I can’t help but also wonder how big of a jump in export those figures would be if/when published.

      It’s kind of funny how China was basically preparing their whole economy for exactly this moment. Countries will want solar panels, and then they’re going to need batteries to stabilize the grid, and EVs to get around. All this overcapacity the US has been screeching about is turning out to be very prudent indeed.
