PG&E is pushing to increase rates by 8% next year and then 6% every year to 2030. That’s $1.2 billion in new spending in 2027 alone! And they get some of the highest guaranteed profits in the country on top of it.

"Stop spending our money!" PG&E wants yet another rate hike because that's how they profit: the more money they spend, the more they make. Share with three friends who need to know!

PG&E spends, they profit, they spend some more, and then they blame you for rising rates. But we're starting a new effort to break this cycle. It’ll be a major media event, and we hope you can attend!

SoCal Edison recently tried to charge you a solar tax of $700/year just for putting panels on your roof. You stopped them, but the next utility attack on rooftop solar is coming.

This time, we can stop it before it starts.

Someone needs to say it: the guaranteed profits that the CA monopoly utilities get when they build poles and wires is the real reason our rates are rising, and it's "the most perverse way to have a public good." Check it out our latest episode and tell us what you think:

We spoke with Jenn Engstrom, State Director of CALPIRG. She reminded us that when we feel like just one tiny person going up against giant special interests, "you don't need to be one person."

The more California solar users we talk to on the Solar Freedom Podcast, the more we hear about a "solar moment" where the wonder of rooftop solar just sort of hit us like a lightning strike. What was your "lightning strike" solar moment?
