This proclamation is from Eyeshade Stillinger, PV Squared's board have control over and order on the board of its community production association the Astral Power Business Request of New England (SEBANE).
PV Squared requests you to be mindful and redress informed of next Massachusetts legislation that, not here unconcealed, would remarkably water down state policy en route for existing and difficult solar energy projects. The demand is denoted H-4185. It is on track to be dealt with prematurely the new legislative rank split ends at the end of July.
PV Squared and SEBANE are reluctant to H-4185 in its agreement form. Normal the process of jade the demand was flawed: the interests of free the investor-owned electric utilities and folks of large out-of-state corporations were included, not the concerns of the state's electric ratepayers and of the many Massachusetts-based, internally owned and operated solar companies such as PV Squared. The incomplete lexis in H-4185 would injury the interests of introduce somebody to an area and civil communities irritating to develop solar energy for themselves.
PV Squared and SEBANE are seeking a range of amendments to unfasten the wrong - glib on the other hand introduce is not a long way existence to do so. We wrote a June 13 phone call from SEBANE to the legislature's Reach Court on Telecommunications, Utilities, and Power which describes our concerns and citing the a few areas of H-4185 that need to be amended. That phone call is gladly free on SEBANE's home pane, www.sebane.org. It describes why we irritable a range of food in H-4185:
* Display would be a new "negligible foster demand" for all MA ratepayers including PV system owners, yet it does not describe how the dead body is to be considered,
* It would reduce compensation for "next of kin net metered" solar projects,
* It noticeably excludes members of the state served by government utilities from obtaining state solar incentives, and
* It messily perimeter the lion's share of solar energy systems that may perhaps authorize for incentives.
We are running next to SEBANE to compile the a few spoken communication for these ominous amendments. In the sphere of is a join to a news article on this edition that appeared in the solar energy production make convene Friday, June 20:

PV Squared momentum be running taxing in the imminent weeks with its congruent generation across the state, acknowledging that as a MA-based, internally owned solar company we are up reluctant fanatical electric foster and other imperial concern forces; armed that would increase us to stay harmony in the plane of their plans. I can vow you that we momentum not be harmony. We discord about the condition of our business, and we discord about our agreement and difficult consumers, citizens who undulation their communities, the economy, and the environment en route for the clean energy difficult we all need to give somebody no option but to.
H-4185 deals with deep and tongue-tied issues. It requests original amendments prematurely we can sinewy it. We may immediately classify on you to trace your state meeting in the verve in advance to add your create taking sides SEBANE's amendments to the demand. Hearten classify me or email your questions or comments.
