And another reason why I think residential solar is so key, right now it takes a backseat in policy to gridscale, which ... ok the US has a lot of land (allegedly), but using commercial roofs and parking lots is a lot closer to residential solar issues than gridscale in the middle of nowhere: there's a lot of variety in geometry, installation headaches, hookups, distributed management, repair. Ultimately it means more jobs, more civilization resiliency in disasters, and a "democraticization" of energy generation, which I think the elite REALLY don't want. It's a thing that economic development basically follows energy production. Central control of economic development (which is what we have with cartel megacorps) wants centralized control of energy production. Solar isn't just a good carbon policy, or a path to cheaper better energy, or better insurance/life in unstable grids. Home solar is an improvement to individual or small-group liberty.
