GV Wire’s Edward Smith talks with KMPH Fox 26 “Great Day” anchor Karl Cooke about an Assembly bill that would raise utility bills for buyers of homes that already have installed solar.
Assemblymember Lisa Calderon, D-Whittier, is the author of AB 942. She says that non-solar ratepayers have subsidized solar customers for too long.
Opponents of the bill say that this will disrupt existing contracts, hurt consumers, and shake the public’s confidence in solar.
