  abstract = {<title>Abstract</title> <p>The climate crisis and associated push for distributed, renewable electricity generation necessitate policy changes to decarbonize and modernize the electricity grid. Some of these changes{\textemdash}e.g., smart meter rollouts and tax credits for solar panel adoption{\textemdash}have received attention in the media and from social scientists to understand public perceptions and responses. Others{\textemdash}e.g., allowing peer-to-peer electricity sales, promoting residential electrification, requiring solar panels on new development, funding microgrids, and paying customers to allow for utility control of electricity use{\textemdash}have received less attention. Here, we explore public perceptions of these understudied policies among California residents (<italic>n</italic>~=~804), a state recognized for innovative energy policy. A majority of respondents supported only one of the policies{\textemdash}requiring solar panels on new development. Others elicited more indecision; few were strongly opposed. In general, male respondents and those with college degrees were more supportive of such policies, as were those more concerned about climate change and with a more open orientation to smart home technologies.</p>},
