I guess the zero out date change was an olive branch with a shot gun in the other hand.
Interesting shift if you encourage more businesses to use solar, but discourage the average homeowner who works an 8-5 job away from home and tends to produce credits during the day and debits at night, especially those homeowners who might be tempted to drive an EV.

Not sure where everyone's $12/yr will go. Does the electric company or the state collect the $12?
