Glad to see some in the US are still trying to fight global warming !
I'm sure some people will intentionally forget this part.

When I looked into this last year, Solar systems in Japan werent/arent cheap, and lack storage for overnight usage. Additionally the lifetime for the solar panels is a bit unclear, they will degrade over a few years and produce less energy, necessitating replacement, but the ROI is normally around 10-15 years....

I'd love to save $80 off my monthly electricity costs, considering that we pay less than that for our 4 bdr home except during July/August..
Cheap electricity isn't a problem here. Not in California.

Also, a thought... won'T this now kick off a series of complaints over how new property developments are going to shade existing ones rending those existing Solar installations less than performant ?

Once again, California passes a law that keeps the low and middle class from actually owning property.
There is a mass exodus because Americans are simply tried of the incompetent left-wing leadership passing meaningless legislation like this, while buckets of human feces and used syringes line city streets.
Renting a uHaul trailer in California is almost an impossible thing to do.
In Texas, they're plentiful and super cheat.
There is a reason for this.
