Use reverse mortgages for clean power [Opinion]
My parents built one of the first solar-paneled homes in New Bedford. They got three decades of free heat from the system, and when it broke down they invested in a modern photovoltaic system.
I live in the Bay Area and have seen first-hand the excellent work Van Jones has been doing around clean energy. He is a major force in the Apollo Alliance as well as the new group Green For All.
Another person who could be a major player in clean technology could be Congressman Barney Frank as chair of the Financial Services Committee. He could develop a financing tool for investing in clean energy. I personally believe that a reverse mortgage could serve as a model for solar investment (see cleanenergyrm.org).
