California lawmakers pass plug-in solar bill aimed at lowering power costs

The measure follows a broader wave in nearly a dozen states to legalize plug-in solar use as electricity prices rise.

California lawmakers have passed a bill that would legalize the use of plug-in solar technology, aimed at helping homeowners manage rising electricity costs, according to NYT Business.

The outlet said legislatures in nearly a dozen states have already moved to legalize the technology, reflecting growing interest in expanding options for residential power generation.

Plug-in solar can be used by homeowners to reduce their electricity costs, the report added, positioning the California vote as part of a wider state push to broaden adoption of the technology.
