Its already 50c or more per kilowatt hour... https://www.pge.com/assets/pge/docs/account/rate-plans/residential-electric-rate-plan-pricing.pdf

On top of the "The Electric Home Rate Plan includes a $15-per-month Base Services Charge"... because people were starting to get 100% of their power from solar and it was "unfair".

At what point is it cheaper to disconnect from the grid and just use solar with a back up generator? 50 cents+ per kWh is insane.

You cant legally disconnect a residential residence in CA from the grid unless you get some HEAVY permits. Thats one of the reasons PGE introduced the minimum fee, people with solar. Some people were making a profit pushing electricity into the grid so they make it 0.03c per kwh credit instead of wholesale.

Half the houses over here have solar now when you drive down the street. Im thinking of getting it too.

Interesting, that they'll buy back energy at a fraction of the cost they're charging for energy

[–] mesamunefire@lemmy.world 3 points 15 hours ago

Its hitting a lot of people that were relying on the sale of their solar in order to offset their loans for the systems.
