California legalizes plug-in balcony solar panels

Original: "California💡just made it legal to turn balconies into tiny power plants. The state is the biggest to approve solar panel

California has approved balcony solar panels that plug directly into wall sockets, becoming the largest US state to allow residents to generate their own electricity this way. Supporters say the rule gives apartment dwellers and renters a cheaper, easier path to renewable energy, turning ordinary balconies into small-scale power sources and lowering household bills.

Why now: The new state rules make small-scale solar accessible to renters and apartment residents, drawing wide interest as energy costs stay high.
