Investor-owned utilities are threatened by California’s clean energy future: don’t let them pull the plug on solar.

Keep rooftop solar strong, increase clean energy equity, and help build a cleaner, safer energy future.

Utilities want full dependence on their expensive and unreliable power. This is what they do:

  • Build the most expensive grid possible.
  • Collect a guaranteed profit on top.
  • Force ratepayers to pay more to build outdated infrastructure.
  • Spread misinformation about net metering and rooftop solar.
  • Create fear and insecurity.

  • Solar, especially with batteries, are a consumers' best defense against spiking energy costs and power outages.
  • Just under half of all solar is going into working and middle class neighborhoods and on a growing number of multifamily apartment buildings.
