Fort Lauderdale Real Estate | Solar Power Accessible
Solar Power Accessible – Solar energy holds the best potential for meeting humanity’s future long-term energy needs while cutting greenhouse gas emissions – but to realize this potential will require increased emphasis on developing lower-cost technologies and more effective deployment policy
The Obama Administration announced a new initiative in July to increase solar energy access and cut energy bills for all Americans, in particular those that live in low- and moderate-income communities. This includes renters living in federally subsidized housing that lack the initial capital to invest in solar or that don’t have adequate information on how to make the transition to solar energy.
Headlining the announcement was a plan to launch a National Community Solar Partnership to unlock access to solar for the nearly 50 percent of households and business that are renters or do not have adequate roof space to install solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, including issuing a guide to support states in developing community solar programs.
The administration plans to train some 200 low-income people to get jobs in the solar industry. And states, local governments, industry and charities have pledged $520 million for investments in community solar programs. These new actions build on President Obama’s goal to train 75,000 workers to enter the solar industry by 2020 and the Solar Ready Vets program that will train transitioning military personnel for careers in the solar industry at 10 military bases.
