Community solar and storage in California could be a game-changer for clean energy and affordable housing. A coalition is urging regulators to implement the Net Value Billing Tariff (NVBT) to revamp the state's community solar market and unlock its potential. With the NVBT, California could become a leader in community solar, enabling the development of 8 GW of solar paired with batteries. This expansion would bring cheaper and cleaner power to households that cannot install rooftop solar, including low-income households and renters. The NVBT is different from previous programs as it does not have capacity caps and requires battery installation to help balance the grid.

“Scientists have long known that tiny marine organisms—phytoplankton(microscopic aquatic plants)—are central to cooling the world by emitting an organic compound known as dimethylsulphide (DMS). Acidification affects phytoplankton in the laboratory by lowering the pH (i.e. acidifying) in plankton-filled water tanks and measuring DMS emissions. When they set the ocean acidification levels for what is expected by 2100 (under a moderate …
