Detailed Information:
The U.S. Department of Energy will work with partners in the building industry, other Federal agencies, utilities, energy service providers, the solar energy industry, financial institutions, state and local governments, and non-governmental organizations to remove market barriers to solar energy use and develop and strengthen demand for solar energy products and applications. The Initiative will not direct and control the activities at the state and local level nor will it typically pay for the installation of solar energy systems. Instead, the Million Solar Roofs Initiative will bring together the capabilities of the Federal government with key businesses, state and local governments and organizations and focus them on building a strong market for solar energy applications on buildings.
