As I lived in the Bay Area during the energy debacle in 2000, I have watched this initiative with great interest.  California leads the nation in subsidizing rooftop solar.  Most of these systems are grid-tie systems which don't require storage batteries.  They use grid-tie inverters to feed the grid such as made by Xantrex.  Even so, this can be quite an investment with a long (10-15 year) payback.  Looks like the subsidies along with new federal tax credits are driving adoption in California.
The closest thing we have in TN is Green Power Switch.  Here as a residential you can buy green power from TVA or one of its distributors. Green generation is at the utility level with this plan.
