A VICTORY FOR US ALL!! ********************************* DEPARTING LOAD FEES DEFEATED
Last Friday the California Public Utilities Commission voted 3-2 to defeat the solar exit fees and support President Peevey's proposal to exempt all renewable energy from these fees as well as 3000 megawatts of distributed generation capacity. This is a tremendous victory which clears the way for the continued rapid growth of renewable energy in California and beyond. Thank you to those of you who responded by emailing your views to the PUC. The 7,000 emails sent in to the PUC on behalf of protecting renewable energy were critical to this success. Special thanks to Greenpeace, Environment California, Powershift, CC Energy, Next Generation, California Solar Center, Solar Buzz, the Solar Energy Industry Association, PV Now, Moveon.org, several California municipalities, and others in this effort. With policy makers, we should work just as hard to reward good decisions as to discourage bad ones. Please take a moment to email the Commissioners and thank them for encouraging the growth of solar energy by exempting solar from exit fees.
