CHAPTER 8.8 - California Solar Initiative
Section 25780.
25780. The Legislature finds and declares both of the following:
(a) It is the goal of the state to install solar energy systems with a generation capacity equivalent of 3,000 megawatts, to establish a self-sufficient solar industry in which solar energy systems are a viable mainstream option for both homes and businesses in 10 years, and to place solar energy systems on 50 percent of new homes in 13 years.
(b) A solar initiative should be a cost-effective investment by ratepayers in peak electricity generation capacity where ratepayers recoup the cost of their investment through lower rates as a result of avoiding purchases of electricity at peak rates, with additional system reliability and pollution reduction benefits.
(Added by Stats. 2006, Ch. 132, Sec. 4. Effective January 1, 2007.)
