A few good articles debunking the cost shift myth are below. In the age of misinformation, I think this is an important topic to compile data and reference material on so we don't have to invent the wheel...

Thanks for sharing these—super helpful resources! The ‘cost shift’ myth has been a major tool for utilities to stifle solar growth, so it’s great to have solid studies to back up the truth. The more we can arm ourselves with data, the harder it is for them to keep spinning this narrative. It’s all about transparency, and as these articles show, solar customers actually benefit the grid by lowering demand and reducing the need for expensive infrastructure. Let’s keep pushing back with facts!
