Well for sure I’m not and I’ve never heard that story Keith. As I’ve said before no one sells their banked KWh to the electric company as they only get 3 cents per kWh
As for providing your electric consumption this has nothing to do with the electric company but merely serves as a data point in designing a grid large enough to satisfy your demand. Plus after they did I told them I want an additional 3 panels which I thought would keep me in pace with inflation and the rising cost of energy
I don’t know who told you that story Keith but IMO it is baseless
Oh, I have friends who have done it, Steve. With LADWP though. I don't know the conditions for install for your power company.
