California legalizes plug-in balcony solar panels

Original: A balcony solar bill in California is now law. When can you plug in?

California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed a bill into law allowing residents to install plug-in balcony solar panels, similar to systems already popular in Germany. The law lets apartment dwellers and renters hang small solar units on balconies and connect them to the grid via a standard outlet. Supporters say it could open rooftop-style solar savings to millions who lack roof access, though regulators must still set safety and interconnection rules.

Why now: California residents, especially renters, are eager to know when and how they can take advantage of the new balcony solar option.
