California regulators cut incentives for rooftop solar even further
The CPUC insists it wants people to add batteries to solar systems to help the grid. But it just cut the compensation that households can earn by doing it.
You're viewing a single thread.
it should be illegal to generate power on residential or commercial parcels. California is doing the right thing by disincentivizing it. Large, privately owned, power providers can self-regulate which then regulates all production
it's good for everyone except the rich and greedy who can afford their own rooftop array
You're confusing upper-middle class with rich. Also, many middle class people finance their rooftop solar and these incentives make it more affordable.
"Upper middle class" Californians are the rich, foo
I've always been a little unclear on this. At around what yearly income or total net worth in 2023 would you say someone is "rich"?
Lol they are not rich, they make more money but the higher cost of living eats that up quickly
people who cannot afford the cost of living are not the rich
I get the feeling that people who are actually rich have successfully tricked you into blaming the "not poor".
Whose blaming anyone? For what?
I may be misinterpeting but the tone of your comments seems to imply frustration towards the financially secure. If this is true, I am suggesting that your frustration should be directed towards those who are actually wealthy and not those who have enough money to buy a house and solar panels.
Thanks for the consideration and explanation. I'm definitely not supportive of the ultra wealthy. What I would offer you in return is the idea that perhaps "the rich" aren't a small clandestine group of the 1%.
What if they are the homeowners in California with solar panels who prevent low income housing from being developed in their neighborhood because it might impact their property value?
Certainly Jeff Bezsos sucks, but he and his friends cannot be responsible for all the inequities we see.
