Arizona Utility Reverses Its Solar Opinions

摘要

Less than one year after raising the ire of solar-power advocates by imposing feed-in tariffs on homeowners with rooftop installations, the Arizona Public Service Co. has come up with a completely different proposal that is likely to generate just as much opposition. Instead of taxing solar, the utility now wants to provide it. While that seems to be a complete reversal for the utility, the real problem lies in the way Arizona Public proposes to go about it and, like the first controversy, how it proposes to pay for it.
