I'm Starting A Campaign Against CPS Energy: Support Residential, Commercial Solar

[boutons_deux]

CPS Energy is unique in that it is the largest municipally owned energy company in USA, but it's still banally structured as a centralized energy supplier.

That needs to change, especially in the year-round, sun-drenched CPS Energy coverage area.

There's abundant experience in rooftop solar, rates, equipment, incentives, etc in California, other US states, Germany, etc which would guide CPS in avoiding the mistakes of the pioneers.


Backgrounders on distributed vs centralized energy:

There's an association of solar installers who I'm sure will support the campaign:

I'm working with Michael Higgins of http://www.greenstarsolutions.net/index.php for my own rooftop or ground mount solar.
