Not owning where one lives makes it highly difficult to migrate to solar power because landlords often don't let you set it up. Definitely the case out here in the Bay Area.

Incentives and tax credits are enticing, even for land lords. .

Not in California. Been trying since I moved out here, and so far both landlords (the house we rent got sold to another investor when our original landlord retired) categorically refused the solar power upgrade. Fought that battle for two years with the first landlord, about a year with the second one. Both times it came down to "shut up or move out."
