California balcony solar bill signed into law

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

California has enacted a new balcony solar law, making it easier for residents to plug in small, portable solar panels without the permitting hurdles that apply to rooftop systems. The legislation follows a model already popular in Germany, where balcony panels have become a mainstream way for renters and apartment dwellers to cut electricity bills. Questions remain over when residents can actually install systems and what safety standards will apply.

Why now: The law's signing raises immediate practical questions about when residents can legally plug in balcony solar panels.
