Don't sell to the grid if you can avoid it. Charge a house battery, charge a EV, run all your stuff for the day. Always better to use than sell back to the grid anyway.

But my larger point was that by harming green energy, you harm energy costs and harm the economy. It becomes less competitive to economies who ride reality instead of fight it.

And yes, I don't know California policies. Hand up, I'm a Brit who just champions green energy transitions. I watch https://grid.iamkate.com with glee.
