Report outlines framework for solar policies after CSI program concludes   

Now that rebates from the California Solar Initiative (CSI) for residential solar power are winding down — almost four years ahead of schedule — officials and regulators are wrestling with how to continue support for consumer-scale solar and the California solar industry, according to the California Center for Sustainable Energy (CCSE). In its new report, "Distributed Generation Solar in California: Framework for Policy and Regulatory Oversight in the Post-California Solar Initiative Era," the future of small-scale solar generation in the state is outlined.
