Tell Newsom: Protect Rooftop Solar

(11/2021) PG&E and California’s other investor-owned utilities are trying once again to put the brakes on local on-site solar. Last June we beat back AB 1139, their effort to gut Net Metering, California's cornerstone rooftop solar policy. Now they’ve taken their attack on local solar to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC).

 
The threat to on-site solar is serious. The utilities are pushing the CPUC to charge a new solar penalty fee between $65 and $90 per month, just for putting solar panels on the roof. They're also proposing to cut the credit solar users receive for sharing their surplus energy with the community. 
 
A statewide effort led by the California Solar Rights Alliance is calling for 100,000 signatures on a petition to Governor Newsom to say No to the utilities and keep rooftop solar growing. Please sign on by November 20.
