Well, a Synology NAS would probably consume like 30-40w, so we are talking about an excess of $70-100 a year where I live. Depends on one's budget of course, but not really a big deal for me. And certainly less than what I am saving on the upfront cost.
It's frustrating when a comment is both needlessly belligerent flamebait AND wrong about electricity prices in the US. I guess that's what makes effective flamebait
After all the USA produces tones of co2, ignores all responsibililties in the world since trump (defunding USAID) and lets not talk about income inequality?
But hey, im pretty sure your cheap energy prices will keep inflation low and living standards high.
Btw. China took over the industry products export 2018 and since 2024 chinese companies primarily buy chines made machines.
The main problem of germany is not energy, its def one topic, but its the market force of a country like china who is huge, has a ton of resources, less worker rights, high work attitude.
China is getting rich now from the same thing which made USA big in the 60is and kept germany high until now.
We are still the 3th biggest country by gdp.
Edit: And germany is so anti innovation its not funny anymore. Even the slow car makers started pushing EVs but then everyone else said "NOOOO". Heat pump? Industry said "yeah ready" and then everyone else "NOOOOO".
While this happend in Germany, in China EVs are normal already...

260 Euros in Germany. And this heat also has to be moved out
Well that’s on you for living in the failed state of Germany, where power is 3-4x as expensive as it is in sensible countries like the US.
