In Wednesday’s episode of The Jolt, Sam looks into why California’s rooftop solar rollout is at risk of stalling.

• Richard McCann, an expert on California’s energy system and founding partner of the M.Cubed consultancy, joins The Jolt to explain where the state’s officials are making mistakes and what needs to be done to fix them.
• To reach its 2045 carbon neutrality goal, California needs to build a lot of renewable energy. Rooftop solar has reached about 16 gigawatts of capacity in the state and is a major part of the power mix.
• But new policy changes, designed to bring down power prices, could derail the rooftop sector’s impressive progress and stunt future growth.
