A committee in the California State Assembly has assumed a bill that the net reimbursement of a solar pric owner can get rid of when a home is transferred. The Assembly Credits Committee has passed Assembly Bill 942Dericated by Assembly member Lisa Calderon (D), which in his last iteration would break an existing net meter agreement with a utility if that ownership was sold to another party.

Under the current languages of the California tool, solar projects are transferred to the new owner of the property within the existing net measurement contract conditions. AB 942 was changed earlier this month, whereby language was removed from an earlier version that would have reduced the net measurement compensation periods from 20 to 10 years. Via AB 942, if a real estate with solar energy is transferred to another owner, that net measurement agreement would be updated to NEM 3.0, the current net invoicing rate that drastically changed the reimbursement for solar energy in the grid.
A coalition of more than 100 interest groups has submitted a petition for the removal of AB 942 and Calssa is accompanied by various other state groups that oppose the bill.

Solar is mainly assumed by customers of working class who want to stabilize the costs of utility companies. Sign customers long -term leases to save over time and may not be thrown under the bus after he has trusted the state, the state has so far.
After passing the Assembly Credit Committee, the bill will appear on the floor of the California State Assembly again for further deliberation on Tuesday.
