One Balcony Solar panel will generate approx 360 watts/hour on a sunny day, enough to power a standard refrigerator, home computer, and a few lights, saving a renter about $250/yr. Click the link in bio to ask your state rep to support “Plug Into the Sun Act" (SB 868).

Plug-In solar panels don’t need an interconnection agreement: sets up like a bookshelf, plugs in like a toaster. A single Plug-In panel could save a renter about $250 a year. Take action now to help pass the “Plug Into the Sun Act” at link in bio!

Say it with me folks: "rooftop solar is a GOOD THING." And the utilities don't like it because it cuts into their profits. If you had the monopoly utilities in front of you right now, what would you say to them? 😁 Tell us in the comments!

Monopoly utility spending on the poles and wires that bring them guaranteed profits went up 300% over the past 20 years. Even though peak electricity demand was flat. Because of rooftop solar, the utilities could have REDUCED spending, and reduced rates for all of us.

PG&E is pushing to increase rates by 8% next year and then 6% every year to 2030. That’s $1.2 billion in new spending in 2027 alone! And they get some of the highest guaranteed profits in the country on top of it.

"Stop spending our money!" PG&E wants yet another rate hike because that's how they profit: the more money they spend, the more they make. Share with three friends who need to know!
