Protesters opposed to increased solar fee rally in San Luis Obispo

Solar workers, consumers, clean energy advocates, community leaders, conservationists, and climate activists protest at PG&E office

Dozens of protesters held a “Don’t Tax the Sun” rally on Tuesday in San Luis Obispo. The group marched to the office of Pacific Gas & Electric on Higuera Street.

It was part of a statewide effort to protest proposed changes by the California Public Utility Commission (CPUC) that would significantly increase the cost of using rooftop solar panels.

“We showed up at the PG&E office to deliver a simple message and highlight the fact that PG&E and the other utilities have been the mastermind behind the anti-solar tax making its way through state government,” says Carter Lavin with California Solar & Storage Association.
