The $10 a month is a service charge to be connected to the grid with a meter, so you can send energy to the grid to get money back, or use the grid when your solar isn't generating enough energy.
I think that's fair. It pays for the meter, the transformer you're connected to, the grid circuit, etc.

- throwaway0xa 5y agoYour reply is nonsensical / a non sequitur. Where I live the local utility is 100% renewable anyway.
- mavhc 5y agoThen it's fair. However people making electricity by polluting our planet are stealing from us, so should have to pay more, have to disadvantage those people more than you disadvantage solar producers
