install solar....rather than a credit incentive. They are fighting the
adoption of clean energy most every step of the way....while making
small strides to give the impression that they are working towards clean

What happens if you want to cancel electrical service and go off grid?
What if you install a solar system with storage (like the Tesla battery)
but it's just for you and you don't care about net metering back to
grid? How would they even know unless someone drives around and looks?
