Summary
San Francisco just cleared a major legal hurdle toward taking control of its own power grid, with the Planning Commission approving the environmental review needed to disconnect from PG&E. This paves the way for the city to run its own electricity distribution, funded through revenue bonds rather than taxpayer dollars. The next step is approval from the California Public Utilities Commission, which will determine the financial terms. If successful, SF will manage power for all residents and businesses within city limits, while PG&E continues to serve areas outside. This long-awaited move signals serious momentum toward local energy control. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
