I'll note that most states don't let you sell electricity back to the grid at anything anywhere near retail price.

Shame on Gavin Newsom for killing California’s rooftop solar industry. PG&E owns him.

Okay but how many hundreds of thousands of dollars did they spend on these systems that are generating so much power...?

About 30k for the panels with install, 10k for the Tesla wall.

Thing is, the only provider in our area that was giving a 1 to 1 discount now upped their rates a bunch. We're going elsewhere because it's more economical.
