As usual,
Avedon has some great links. I missed this goodie:
Just the other day, Duke Energy CEO Jim Rogers
said, 'If the cost of solar panels keeps coming down, installation costs
come down and if they combine solar with battery technology and a power
management system, then we have someone just using [the grid] for
backup.' What happens if a whole bunch of customers start generating
their own power and using the grid merely as backup? The EEI report
warns of 'irreparable damages to revenues and growth prospects' of
utilities.
