"This is substantially more onerous," he said. "For us, we think it is an outrageous and unfair move by a monopoly," he said.īywater said rate changes imposed in Nevada killed rooftop solar installations - dropping them by 99 percent - and led major solar companies to leave the state. "Customers partially relying on renewable energy through the net metering program must still pay their fair share of the costs to serve them," Hoogeveen said.īut David Bywater, Vivint Solar's interim chief executive officer, described the proposal as the most onerous assault on the solar industry in the country, predicting it will topple one Utah's fastest-growing economic engines. "Rocky Mountain Power supports renewable resources as long as an appropriate rate is in place that allows customers to use private generation without adversely affecting other residential customers," said Greg Hoogeveen, Rocky Mountain Power's senior vice president and chief commercial officer. Those costs - which the utility company says will balloon to $667 million over the next 20 years - are driving a proposed three-prong rate increase for any new solar customers after Dec. It is a huge scary step, but with Rocky Mountain Renewable, it was a fantastic step in the right direction.SALT LAKE CITY - Rocky Mountain Power says a study of what rooftop solar customers are paying shows that the current rate structure is not sustainable, with costs of $6.5 million being shifted each year to other customers. Sure we are paying for solar, but our solar bill is only what our power bill used to be, and wont go up, and will some day be gone. Through the winter our power bill was only $10. So all in all this is a fantastic company to do business with. Only once has it not been 100% and it was fixed the next day. Not that he was on the roof helping with the install, but he checks on our panel production often and talks to us when things are not 100%. His name is Brian and is a very hands on kind of guy. Even the owner of all this was personally involved with us. Anyone who has this guy working for them is assured to be making double what they would be without him. Felt like we had been best friends for years on day one. Holy crap! This guy was off the charts cool. It was amazing that the sales portion of this was so pleasant. The guy really wanted to help us out of paying the power company. I am sure he even offered to let me use his car if I needed to. He bent over backwards to make everything work out for us. He was super nice even through my attempt to make him see I was not interested. But there was something about Dharma that wore on me. I didn't have the money to spend and was not in the mood to listen to any one. I was texting my Daughter and looking at my phone while he was talking. While he was talking I made it a point to be rude. So when Dharma (salesman) showed up at my home I was less than inviting. So My wife told me someone stopped by to tell her about Solar and wanted to talk to us together.
