I’ve long thought that if the energy industry doesn’t adapt to the coming age of distributed energy, that grid defection would become a necessity for solar and others. Apparently the threat of grid defection has now overcome the “threat to growth” as Edison Electric Institute puts it. Why? Just this week, the Executive Vice President of EEI came up with a different talking point about solar. No longer is the group against cost shifting, just “unreasonable cost shifting”. There must be more to it and why the change in tune.
