Reader James made a comment on
“I have read that with so many PG&E and other power company ratepayers going to solar to reduce their bills, the power companies are/will be faced with revenue shortfalls.”
I did a little checking and I wanted to clarify – PG&E actually makes money on solar. They buy it from their customers for about 4 cents a kwh, then turn around and sell it for 16 – 33 cents (baseline to Tier 4).
James also reasoned “ there are legitimate costs for upkeep, repairs, replacement, upgrading etc, as well as salaries/benefits. “
That’s true. I’m asking anybody who sees PG&E or Cal Water engaged in any of those activities in Chico to send me a photo.
