They probably just want the government to subsidize their personal property and when the money instead goes to a far more efficient, collective system that benefits the masses they get upset. I’ll bet they love thinking about selling the power back to the government for even more money, too.

Forty-nine of the new grants are state-level awards, six serve Native American tribes and five are multi-state awards. They can be used for investments such as rooftop solar and community solar gardens.
Among those receiving grants are state projects to provide solar-equipped roofs for homes, college residences and residential-serving community solar projects in West Virginia, a non-profit operating Mississippi solar lease program and solar workforce training initiatives in South Carolina.
