Ex California Governor's Open Letter Defending Solar Energy

California has more rooftops with solar panels than any other state and continues to be a leader in new installations. But a proposal from the state’s public utility commission threatens that progress.

It should be stopped in its tracks.

When I was California’s governor, we set a goal in 2006 of putting solar panels on one million roofs across the state. Skeptics said it couldn’t be done, but with bipartisan support in the State Legislature, California met its goal in 2019.

The state now has 1.3 million solar rooftops generating roughly 10,000 megawatts of electricity — enough to power three million homes. And more are being added every week. Roughly two-thirds of those rooftops are on houses and businesses; the rest are on government buildings.

But this hard-earned and vitally important accomplishment is now under threat. The California Public Utilities Commission is considering a plan that would make it too costly for many Californians to embrace solar power. A decision could come as soon as Jan. 27.

When that cunt was governor, everyone hated him. He's claiming credit for solar panels yet california STILL has an energy crisis. Solar panels dont generate enough electricity.

Arnie should have built some nuclear reactors.....oh thats right, libtards wont allow that!

He should stick with fucking his illegal maid.

The libs always lie. They are now going to tax people who installed solar panels to escape the sky high electricity prices. Power companies got mad because it means they mad less money and now they want to charge you a "grid access fee" not buying enough of their over priced product.

Bump.

Democrats claim to care so much about the environment and promoting supposedly green energy but yesterday the California Public Utilities Commission voted to slash residential solar rates for selling electricity back to the grid by 75%. That means virtually no residential solar makes financial sense in California any more.

How is this supporting the supposed "green energy transition" when you make it economically unviable for homeowners to install solar?

You're part of the problem my partner complains about. You want government to subsidize solar energy. He would call you a RINO.

lol

Call out hypocrisy is not asking for anything other than that hypocrisy gets exposed. I am positive you are unable to understand such simple things though. Also, no, paying a fair market rate for electricity sold on to the grid is not a subsidy, my not very bright toilet clogging friend.

Even you should he able to figure that one out.
