Two of California’s climate regulators are at odds over the future of
rooftop solar panels in the state. A recent proposal from the California
Public Utilities Commission would slash solar incentives for homeowners.
But, that plan would come into conflict with a state requirement that
mandates that new homes install solar panels and that those panels
remain within financial reach. POLITICO’s Colby Bermel breaks down the
controversial proposal and its potential impact.
