Sadly not surprising, but Virginia gets an “F” when it comes to distributed (e.g., rooftop) solar power. See below for the section on Virginia. And remember, we have Dominion Energy and a a Dominion-bought-and-paid-for General Assembly to thank for this deplorable situation. Oh, and one more thing: THIS is what Virginia SHOULD be doing and COULD be doing if it weren’t controlled by Dominion – “Hawaii Gov. David Ige (D) on Tuesday signed a bill directing the Public Utilities Commission to implement performance-based regulation by 2020 that breaks the link between utility revenues and capital investments.”
