A house requires a solar panel set nearly as large as the home. How do you fit that into a population dense area like LA? And businesses, factories, they require many times their footprint in solar coverage to function.
Where you are peeps getting your information?
My bro-in-law has a new house in LA suburbs with just half the roof with solar panels and it is already supplying his home with all the electricity he needs when his a/c is on 24/7.
Solar panels are now becoming standard for new development in CA.
Power companies are still resisting co-generation where homeowners can get paid for electricity supplied to the grid when their solar panels have surplus. So imagine if houses get their entire roof covered with solar panels, or Tesla's more efficient solar roofs. It can supply the city and/or commercial and industrial needs.
Hate to break the news but Power companies must buy the excess. Nothing to resist. Your BIL may be able to do as you claim but what works in the suburbs of LA will not work in the suburbs of Buffalo NY or Minneapolis MN. How many panels are on the roof doesnt mean anything. Its not a sq ft to sq ft equation.
