I Agree, that is one major path they are moving on but the other Path which they do not like to talk about is their growing dependency on home owners to feed back power to the Grid.We have a different perspective. From my view point: The last few years most solar has been installed by utilities to be mixed into thier generation or by large corporations to be used on thier side of the meter. Meta is somewhere around 4,000 Megawatts. There are over 10,000 Utility scale solar farms in the United States. The utilities will continue to be responsible for most future solar installed and they will do everything they can to make sure that doesn't change. There's what right and what those who can control the future will allow.
Transitions on this scale are never easy but I think we have already crossed a threshold that makes it almost impossible for them to do anything drastic. Well lets just say that if they did then a lot of customers their current customers might start looking into going off grid completely or heading to the courts. That could lead to more of those Solar powered communities that pool together to create their own power or Laws on the books that they just cannot get around.
