Ask Jigar: Should You Cut the Cord on Your Utility?

Solar on the roof. Battery in the garage. You can run your house yourself now. The question is what that does to the grid we all share.

This week on Ask Jigar: what local clean-energy leaders should do now that the feds have pulled back. Whether virtual power plants will hurt utility valuations. Why nuclear supporters should love cheap battery storage. And whether mass defection from the California grid is real — or if NEM 3.0 already changed the math.

Four questions. One answer: use the grid we already paid for.
