California Regulators Approve Community Solar Decision Opposed by Solar Advocates
Utility regulators voted on a program designed to boost community solar. Solar and consumer advocates say the plan is flawed.

Last week, the state’s Public Utilities Commission delivered another disappointment to solar advocates, voting 3-to-1 to approve changes to community solar programs that advocates fear will result in few new projects.
