Future solar users in Arizona will be billed $5/month for net metering benefits.  APS was asking for $50-$100 per month and spent $10 for every $1 on the solar side.  This is a solar victory, we were able to mobilize; show the public and the commissioners that the APS proposal was wrong.  APS tried everything in and outside the known playbook to get their way.  Our industry will continue to be more sustainable with policy victories and increased revenues!

Today, the ACC is expected to decide the future of Arizona net metering policies.  Based on the facts coming from the case, my hope is that the decision is based on actuality which showcase the benefits created by net metered solar energy.  Solar is a vital part of the energy portfolio and the ACC will have to look into the future.  Consumers will benefit by their foresight and more solar in Arizona!

History repeating itself? Things are going well, at SPI and Powergen manufacturers are talking about a healthy backlog and some stability in pricing.  Hearing this makes me happy, it creates an industry outlook that spans more than a few weeks and allows everyone in the value chain to make sound business decisions.  Note to the cautious: keep pushing and taking those orders, set achievable expectations and build up your backlog.
