California utility regulators on Thursday approved major changes to the state's booming rooftop solar market that they say will more evenly spread the cost of energy and help reduce reliance on fossil fuels in the evening.
That has led to criticism that homeowners with solar panels aren’t paying their fair share toward the overall energy grid, on which they still rely when they aren’t generating solar power in the evening. Power rates include costs like electric transmission and wildfire prevention work, and state regulators give utilities a set amount they can collect from their customer base.
“For the rooftop solar industry to remain sustainable, we must place greater vlaue on exports during the truly fossil heavy time of day," said Commissioner John Reynolds. “In short, we are making this change because of our committment to addressing climate change."
