I don't see gas powered cars going away here the way these idiots who run the state love taxes/reg. fee's. Public transportation here is a joke, the buses/trolleys I see everyday have hardly any riders. New houses here are being built with solar panels.
Our house is 100% solar too. Did it about 6 years ago. We seldom get rain or even clouds here so it works pretty well, but like you mentioned, I've noticed the bill has crept up a bit since they have changed how they compute costs.

I honestly don't see it as a solution to saving energy, especially when you consider the small handful of states that even see the amount of sunshine we do.

I'm surprised you guys didn't get locked to a basic service rate in with your original agreement. I did.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
