You mean the ultralibs in California who push a lot of the environmental nonsense aren’t willing to “do whats right” unless they are paid to do so? Imagine that!
Never mind that fact that acres and acres of solar panels are a real, down to earth eye sore with very little output compared to its cost.
I think it’s more of a case that they were happy with the rebates but about had a heart attack when they found out how the power company was going to charge them more for the electricity they did use.
I think the power company had a lot more to do with killing the project than the local papers want to know about.
