* Purports to conduct analysis of alleged underpayment of pro rata distribution costs by people who have solar systems (and do of course pay PG&E when they draw energy) *
* Conducts no corresponding analysis of PG&E cost structure, assumes company is well run *
I don't know if their numbers are accurate but the basic idea actually is fair. A fair part of the retail cost of power is the cost of getting it to the consumer.
It's the dirty secret of solar power--the numbers only make sense if you can sell back power at near retail rather than at wholesale.
I don't understand the charge for simply having panels, though.
