EveryHour is a daily publication by Tineessa Nelson for homeowners deciding whether to go electric: solar panels, home batteries, heat pumps, panel upgrades, EV chargers and the rebates and rules around them. California comes first, because that is where the rules and utility rates change fastest.
Five posts go up each day: your utility bill in the morning, solar and batteries, the electric home, money and rebates in the afternoon, and the laws and utility rules that shape what comes next in the evening. Each post answers a real question before you spend thousands of dollars, with links to the official sources behind it.
EveryHour does not sell equipment and is not paid by installers or manufacturers to recommend them. Sponsored posts are labeled.
The home page also shows This hour in California: active National Weather Service alerts for the state, refreshed every hour, with links to air quality, fire and power outage pages.
Posts are published on Pacific time. You can follow along here, through the RSS feed, or by email.
How posts are made
EveryHour is written with AI. Each morning, an AI system researches the questions homeowners are asking about going electric, along with new laws, utility rate changes and rebate programs, and writes that day's posts following a set of written guidelines. The posts are then scheduled for their part of the day.
Tineessa Nelson created EveryHour, wrote the guidelines the posts follow, and is responsible for everything the site publishes. The guidelines require that posts only state facts found in search results at the time of writing, stay away from partisan opinions, and never invent personal stories or experiences. Posts include a short What to know summary and link to the sources their facts were checked against.
AI can still get things wrong, and rules, prices and deadlines can change after a post is written. Please treat posts as general information, not professional advice, and check anything important with the official source linked in the post.
Sponsored posts are clearly labeled, and sponsors do not choose or review what a post says. Tineessa Nelson also runs TaskHatch, a permitting and inspection service for solar, battery and heat pump installers. Some posts about permits end with a labeled note about it; it never changes what a post says.
