kl,
I did this about four years ago, too, totally without govt
assistance for I am not a socialist. I also have 8 solar
panels and a small windmill for a hybrid system which the
local power company will NOT allow me to use without totally
disconnecting from their system. There is a switch that would
prevent and 'back up of current' through the main line
connected to the utility but they are concerned that it would
back up the utility line and 'possible injure a lineman who
might be working on the line near my house.' In the three
years I have lived here, I have never seen a single lineman.
They do not understand solar/wind and do not want me to do
this. I can only use it for totally free-standing
(disconnected from utility) energy stored in a battery bank!
Bummer! Hardly worth the effort but runs a small water pump
and lighting for barn and kennel.
I don't think people would mind selling electricity to
California if the people there had not been lecturing the rest
of the country on preserving the environment and boasting of
their own superior efforts in this regard. It seems the
height of arrogance to want their electricity to be produced
elsewhere, in this case, Texas, and pollute where others live
then DEMAND it be sold to them cheaply! I am going to write
and ask that TVA not sell any to them because I do not want to
be polluted so that Californians do not have to face the
consequences of their actions. I know it has an impact
nationally on the economy but I do not think it will have as
much effect as Californians seem to think.

Don't break your arm patting yourself on the back. I replaced
all my
incandescents with fluorescent bulbs a good 10 years ago, and
I've paid
for all of them without any help from the government.
