This is your SolarWakeup for August 24th, 2015

Both of the top stories today are directly related. Wholesale DG and other wheeled power is taking big users off the grid managed by utility monopolies. Large scale solar is offering long term stable pricing that is at or below the cost of other power generation. Additionally, going out on their own, large users act on their own behalf and find the best deals for them as opposed to the best interest of the shareholders. In Nevada, 3 casinos are planning on leaving the grid and shed 7% of the total load provided by NV Energy. And the fight is over 235MW of residential solar???
