I read the SB 849, there is a catch there because they define Solar Project as :
"Solar project", a group of photovoltaic interconnected solar panels or arrays that convert sunlight into electricity for the primary purpose of wholesale or retail sales of generated electricity, including all on-site equipment and facilities necessary for the proper operation of the facility, such as electrical collection and transmission lines, battery storage systems, transformers,substations, and operations and maintenance facilities.
but if I do not perform any retail sales, or any export to the grid then I fall outside their definition of Solar Project. Maybe net metering is not consider sales, as utilities do not pay back or give 1099 for every customer, just credits.

Each Tuesday at noon (Eastern) solarPVtraining.com hosts a Zoom sessions for students (or anyone, really) interested in solar. Generally discussion focuses on technical questions, problems or troubleshooting - or just what is happening in solar that week.
This week we explore what might be coming over the next year in the world of energy storage.
