Exactly which states are using anagrams for their public services commissions rate standards? Did you by chance mean algorithms?

At any rate, quite a thesis you wrote there. I suppose one wants to defend their position, even if it means making a few leaps in the process. My point is, was and remains that no one else should have to subsidize another individuals decision to play with solar. If you want it, great! Then buy it yourself and go from there. Net metering itself is fine as long as the utility is only paying or reimbursing the individual at the same cost it costs the utility to produce the power. Otherwise it's just an additional cost passed on to the other rate payers and I can't for the life of me see how that can possibly be viewed as fair or "right".

I'm not sure where you got anything about 40 cents KwH or billions of dollars in my posts, but I never said anything like that. The fact is, and it is a fact, that in my state if you want to you can legally join a consortium that buys "solar" power at a low cost, 6 cents KwH is the price quoted to us, and the utility is forced to pay over 12 by law. This is in NY. research it if you like. It's wrong IMO.

As far as guarantees and life expectancy of solar panels, that's salesmanship. You have no more guarantee of "Bobs Solar Panel Co." being there in 25 years than any other company. I fail to see why anyone takes issue with that.

If you footed the bill for your installation by yourself and it works for you, that's great. But I find the people talking about subsidies usually fail to consider just who is paying their way, and that is wrong to me.
