Loren Denison – CPUc and nem 3 are a joke ! When we the people are held responsible for paying for PGE carelessness and improper maintenance. This is an outrage , and by what law can they charge their customers? it isn’t even supposed to be at the earliest in July and after people have time to have their say against the matter. pG&E isn’t supposed to or anyone else have a monopoly!

In reply to Elaine Chanteloup. It would be helpful if the link to provide comments was actually posted here, or in any clear fashion on the CPUC website. They are intentionally making it difficult for the public to comment on the utilities cash grab.

In reply to Tom O'Reilly. I finally was able to comment. Your link is correct. A bit hard to know how to search for the proposed rule to comment on...in fact I already forgot how I was able to search and find it. Perhaps you could add instructions for getting to the comment page.

I have had rooftop solar since 2015. I would love the opportunity to comment on any changes. I am concerned that the CPUC is in the back pocket of PG&E and Edison in California. We must not tax solar. PG&E doesn’t reimburse at true-up for excess solar to the grid. One of the best ways to fight climate change is rooftop solar. Let’s not kill the program.

Please provide the link for the public comments. I have been unable to find it.

The CPUC’s decision to reopen the net energy metering 3.0 proceeding is an excellent move to hopefully result in a more fair and balanced outcome.

The original proposal would have been disastrous for the solar industry. It is good to see that the CPUC is willing to listen to public input on this critical issue.

I agree with the author that utility special interests have a lot of power and a profit motive in stopping competition from rooftop solar.

This is why the public needs to make their voices heard on this issue. I believe that solar is an integral part of our future.

We should be doing everything we can to make it more affordable and accessible.

Thank you for your article.

This is an important issue that deserves more attention.

I hope that the CPUC takes all of the public input into consideration and decides in the best interest of Californians.

Can anybody provide a link to comment on this at CPUC? I’ve searched the docket and can’t find this.

we r in a war with fossil fuel climate change and all adopters if solar should b paid fully now

“The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) announced on May 9 it is “reopening the record” on its NEM 3.0 proceeding in order to gather information on some specific elements of the decision.”

First of all, THANK YOU for announcing this new comment period. This NEM 3.0 has NOTHING to do with net metering, but the demise of net metering with proposed “tweaks” for solar PV adopters, while pushing them out of long term PPAs of net metering and into PPAs of wholesale net billing and demanding a monthly grid connection fee is extortion and illegal under the Federal RICO statutes. NOW it is time for the rate payers to be heard loud and clear.
