California officially becomes first in nation mandating solar power for new homes – Orange County Register
This is game changing for climate change. With California leading the way, the rest of the nation should follow. Like LEED and CARB, solar on homes will be a standard that all homeowners will find invaluable and second nature.
With solar on all new homes, an EV is a no-brainer. There will be options to increase the system size to accommodate one or two EVs, without a large upfront cost.
The only way this could have been a better outcome is if solar were required for renovations of more than a certain amount or foreclosure/REO.
One can dream.
