Solar Supporters Rally In Front Of Sempra’s San Diego Headquarters
Solar industry supporters rallied outside of Sempra’s downtown San Diego headquarters Tuesday, complaining about proposals to make rooftop solar much more expensive.
The California Public Utilities Commission is in the midst of a process that will rewrite the rules for Net Energy Metering (NEM), the state’s system for creating financial incentives to install rooftop solar.
Rooftop solar is widely seen as a key part of California’s strategy to move the state’s power generation away from greenhouse gas emissions. That means relying more on renewable energy instead of fossil fuels like natural gas to generate electricity.
The protesters tried, but failed to deliver a petition asking the energy company to stop supporting rule changes that significantly increase the cost of installing solar. for full story follow this link
