  • Calseia Annual Report 2016
    CALSEIA ANNUAL REPORT 2016 1 2 2016 SHIFTING BATTLE LINES From the historic razor-thin 3-2 CPUC vote to save Net Energy Metering in January to the proposed Time-of-Use rate structures that threaten to undermine the economics of solar, 2016 ushered in shifting battle lines for the California solar energy market that will define 2017 and beyond. This shift in approach to slowing down the solar market from NEM to rate structures makes the work of CALSEIA ever more important – not only our work to represent the industry in the most critical decision-making forums in the state, but our ability to quickly turn around and inform you about these changes. Further, the need to remove barriers and reduce soft costs are as important as ever. Through our permitting hotline as well as our interconnection teamwork at the CPUC, CALSEIA worked throughout the year to smooth the path forward and get our contractors out in the field building the state’s clean energy future. Then comes the work to build the opportunities of the future, which includes paving the way for storage to become mainstream and getting value from the capabilities of smart inverters. Winning individual battles is great. But there is still a war of words, ideas, and policies raging in California and nothing should be taken for granted. We are your public voice working to ensure that California’s solar policies remain strong, that you remain informed, and that solar energy is increasingly relied upon as the centerpiece of a modern energy system. On behalf of the CALSEIA Board of Directors and staff, we thank you for your ongoing support.
