Two important things of note in today’s news. APS is taking on the net metering discussion, when it comes to utilities always remember that their argument will sit behind two thoughts. 1. Utilities have an obligation to serve, meaning that the customer expects the light to come on when the switch is pushed. 2. Utilities will do EVERYTHING in their power to protect their ultimate prize, the monopoly. Also, the GOP in the House thinks it’s time to lower spending in the DOE, a lot of talk about Solyndra once again.
