More barking up the wrong tree for cost savings. Maybe take a look at the utility shareholder cost shift: https://www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/openforum/article/pge-utility-bill-california-20175554.php

More evidence of the wrong tree, including mislabeling $4 billion that solar users produce and use on their own property: https://www.canarymedia.com/articles/solar/californias-rooftop-solar-is-a-benefit-not-a-cost-to-the-state

This is actually a good move by the PUC. Poor people shouldn't be subsidizing solar panels on wealthy homeowners' roofs.

People should be paying higher fixed costs for their grid connection

CA absolutely needs higher fixed and lower volumetric rates.

Incredibly based. A great thing

@governornewsom.bsky.social No, no, NO. PG&E does not need more handouts.
Californians generating local clean energy - and returning it to the grid for neighbors to use - deserve their fair share. Period.
