A new mandatory solar power ordinance in San Francisco makes
for some very good renewable energy, and energy efficiency, news.
The San
Francisco Board of Supervisors has unanimously passed the Better Roofs
regulation to “fight climate change and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.” As
reported by treehugger, the move, which requires new buildings to go
from solar-ready rooftops to solar-actual, represents a huge step toward
the city’s goal of powering the city with 100% renewable electricity by
2025.
