Red alert: The Newsom Administration has proposed to break the contract with the state’s two million solar customers, slash the solar credit, and charge a new a solar tax. These changes would apply to ALL solar consumers who signed up for solar before April 2023 (NEM1 and NEM2).

Electricity Bills Potentially Going Up

The Newsom Administration is lying about rooftop solar to avoid addressing the root cause of high electricity rates—excessive utility spending. They should be focused on reining in that spending, not attacking solar consumers. Rooftop solar actually helps because when people buy less electricity from the utilities, the utilities don’t have to spend as much – saving solar consumers billions of dollars annually. 

Don’t let PG&E and the Newsom Administration get away with scapegoating rooftop solar to avoid holding the utilities accountable. Please send your state Assembly member and Senator a message right now. Then call their offices. Then share this message with three friends, or a thousand.
