This is your SolarWakeup for October 12th, 2015

My homestate, Florida, is the 3rd largest energy user in the Country. Largely focused on tourism, agriculture and air conditioners, energy consumption per capita is probably the highest in the nation. I use over 3,000kWh per month on average thanks to my A/C running 12-18 hours per day. I have solar but I also have an EV but overall the adoption of both in Florida is essentially non-existent. But the war on solar is now public, CEO of FPL is now out with a tour on the supposed “cost-shift” caused by solar on homes. Instead the solar plants, he says, should be large scale (but only owned by the investor owned utilities). This will not play out well but we shall see.
