Ca. solar users

Mr. O

Anyone here in Ca. using solar ? I am wondering what all the hoopla is over the utility shutting down, and people crying about their solar is down too......

Are the systems designed to shut down when line voltage is lost, or can they still power their own home ?

Here the power you generate is dumped back into the grid and you get credit for what you produce. You don't actually get to use the power you produce for yourself.

I hope this PG&E's "you push us, we push you" will teach these morons where electricity comes from. No not just from the walls. With all the red tape the state has allowed to flourish and environmental studies that would be required to even start a solar farm in the out skirts with the folk's mentality of "not in my back yard" it'll be a long wait for this state to be solar powered. I'm sure if newsome gets a bright idea on eminent domaining and start to buy Central Valley land on the cheap like Bakersfield (it's only the land for farms and meth cooks) it's a perfect location for a county wide solar farm to power LA.

I wonder how many folks would exit to "East" because of this latest debacle in the land of fruits and nuts? Rents/homes over priced and now no electricity.
