Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them

It is unique to “balcony solar”. Typical solar systems require permits and inspections before connecting.

No it isn’t. The same thing happens with the kind of gas generators you can get from your local hardware store all the time.

As I mentioned several times elsewhere, gas generators also typically require permitting.

For a permanent installation, yes, just like a large solar installation. But I can go down to Lowe’s and get a gas generator capable of similar output as the balcony solar and it won’t require any permits.
