Since solar power is still so incredibly inefficient, it only makes sense to make use of natural gas electric plants anyhow. We're in desperate need of more power in California to provide for our ever-growing population. State politicians will change their tune when state residents get a whiff of power rates with those stupid California requirements. Lookin' for a sea change with voter attitudes in the next 5-10 years here in the golden state.
