Rooftop Solar slated to take another hit

Rooftop solar seems like the front line answer to climate change, but there's a problem: how to share the cost of maintaining the grid and other programs among users, as more and more homeowners opt out. In this episode we look at the latest effort to fix the problem by - yes - taking another swipe at rooftop solar. Hang on to the end of the episode to hear what our neighbor Nevada is doing!

We chat with our old friends, Pat and Amit, from Your Energy Solutions.

Here are links to the two bills mentioned:

Limit fixed charge to $10: AB 1999
