Have a Big Idea?

Help low income recipients of utility assistance to go solar and after the original installation they would no longer need assistance. Start with just doing this for low income homeowners. Then when you are building or renovating public housing you add solar. Also if you make the systems larger then they need they can sell energy back the public utilities. This would also creat the need for many jobs in the green energy field.
