  1. You can generate as much solar energy as you like but it doesn’t mean AES will pay you for it. Depending on the installation size/complexity, the pay-back period for a system can be nearly 20 years. These utility companies like the status quo.

  2. I agree we need to incentivize solar and other alternative energy systems that let people be more resilient to power outages and in disasters having that in place it increases quality of life and will cut cost of disaster relief.

    Don’t let the lobbyists hijacker the democratic system of government.
