[quote=AN][quote=ocrenter]I suppose. Although they might be accelerating the process. I’m certainly happy about it since it speeds up the ROI on my PV system.[/quote]
I think what’s happening is, people like us are causing them to gouge those who can’t get solar. They have to recoup the revenue from somewhere. Not everyone can get solar (poorer areas, people w/ roof that’s facing bad directions, people living in condos, rentals, etc). There are a lot more people in those categories than people like us. So, be blessed that they chose to do it that way and you skirt paying your fair share instead of them charging a flat fee for transmission/grid use. After all, we don’t have backup battery to be completely off grid, so we’re still using their infrastructure, but we don’t have to pay for it.[/quote]
I do agree they are gouging those that have not gone solar. But just judging by the roofs driving around, would say the majority of SFR throughout the county are still without solar. They will only speed up the conversion to solar either via purchase or lease.
I just don’t understand the short sighted business case here, that’s all.
