I have gone toe to toe with the utilities about allowing individuals who decide to invest in their own rooftop solar project or something like that, that they're not going to get penalized by their utilities for producing their own power and being excluded from the grid for being able to do that. I'm a free market person. If people want to invest in that, that ought to be their right to be able to do that without being penalized by the utilities or by the government for that. (03:32–03:48)
