Depends where you live. IIRC California made it more difficult to have solar installed. Where I am there is a cap on the size of installation I can get, and how much I can produce.

Yes the technology is there and it’s great, but regulatory capture is still a huge problem.

"Ooo we're in the business of making money, not paying homeowners for generating it with their own panels" bitch shut the fuck up.
