11/20/13—“Once again, common sense – and overwhelming public support – have prevailed on the side of clean, affordable solar energy. SEIA applauds the Georgia Public Service Commission and its staff for listening to the concerns of solar homeowners and business owners in Georgia, who would have been socked with an unfair and unwarranted fee on their utility bills. To its credit, Georgia Power sensed an ever-growing opposition to the proposal and has withdrawn it. We urge the Commission to formally accept this decision at its December 17 meeting. Moving forward, we will continue our efforts to educate public officials as to the true market value of solar, and the benefits it provides to local economies, grid reliability, consumer choice and environmental quality.”
