Yeah the remote connection to the local utility would be the obvious answer.
People with Nest systems can enroll into "Energy Saver" programs that start the AC at 3pm to cool the house early for the energy spike at 5pm when many get home from work. All you get is a minor credit per year.
If that shit works they can setup a system for solar.
Of course you can... but it's not there right now. Imagine your AC needs a physical switch to flip. No incentives can overcome that, and new equipment is expensive.
