Solar Energy Investment Fund
It seems like the way to spin it is as a fund you invest in, to offset your electric bill, and you get something better than CD rates of return for 2 years and then you can roll it over and buy additional panels or get your principal back. To avoid SEC filing requirements we should start with friends, family, and people we have had some business dealings with before ( e.g. your corner grocer, or your barber).
Goal: Generate first solar power by March 31, 2007. We'll start with our own money and once that's working, we'll be looking for people that want to invest.
