Counties are blocking wind and solar across the US::Local governments across the U.S. are blocking new clean energy plants. See the best locations for wind and solar power, and where it's being stopped.

I disagree. That’s a huge cost to force on people.

No one is forcing you to buy a home in an HOA that requires solar.

[-] KairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 6 months ago

Could easily be in an HOA that adds the requirement though.

I do have sympathy for people that vote NO on large capital expense assessments because its expensive for them and then have to come up with the money anyways.

I love how you used the entire argument against HOAs to argue against HOAs, yet still got downvoted.

I appreciated the irony.

I don't live in an HOA but my home's value went up $150k over the last couple years for absolutely nothing. It would be cool if a tiny portion of that increase was at least due to something like solar panels being installed.
