Taking Advantage of the Promising Residential Solar Market
Thursday, August 23rd, 2012, 8:00am-10:30am San Francisco / Streamed Panel Discussion: 8:30am - 10:00am San Francisco / 11:30am - 1:00pm New York / 5:30pm - 7:00pm (Paris-Frankfurt)
At a recent AGRION solar meeting one panelist quipped, “the best way to make $1 million from a utility-scale development is to start with $2 million.” While this line always gets a laugh, the speaker then went on to say that the residential solar markets show great growth and earnings potential for the near future. With less permitting red-tape and companies offering $0 down solar leasing options, installing solar panels are becoming a more and more attractive investment for small business owners and single-family homeowners. Join us as we hear from industry professionals as they discuss their thoughts for growing businesses that cater to this industry segment.
Topics of discussion:
Residential Solar:
• The dropping cost of equipment as technologies leap forward
• Solar Leasing vs. Solar Purchasing
• New demographics of the solar customer and how to expand your business
• Streamlining the permitting process - how the industry can bring about the changes needed
• Opportunities in residential solar finance structures
