California faces rising electricity costs attributed to drought, wildfires, and outdated rooftop solar policies. The recent repeal of tax credits and support for clean energy under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act threatens affordability and innovation in energy. Projections show rates can increase by 7% to 11% by 2035, costing households an additional $320 annually. However, there is potential for savings through timely investments in renewable projects by state officials, benefiting consumers before federal incentives expire.
