The importance of a clean energy economy was visited time and again in President Obama’s State of the Union address. With such strong support coming from the White House, we here at SunRun are very excited about what 2010 will bring for solar. SunRun’s president, Lynn Jurich, spoke to Fox Business on Thursday about the future of the solar energy sector, as well as the hundreds of green jobs the solar industry has been able to create.
Not only has home solar become an affordable option for millions of homeowners, but it has also been able to create clean, permanent jobs. According to research, for every six homes that goes solar, a green job is created — and that’s not including the other jobs created down the supply line. And these are jobs created within the nation – here and at present.
Watch the Fox Business clip to hear more about green jobs, federal subsidies, and the future of solar.

Hi Lynn,
We met a couple years ago at a solar power event.
I’m the founder of Wattminder, a startup focused on web service to diagnose faults in solar power plants.
We are seeking a collaborator-beta client project.
I would like to visit you at your office and show you a demonstration of our capability–takes less than 30 minutes.
Please let me know if you’ll be interested and available tomorrow, or any time soon.
My profile under Steve Yang, P.E. outlines our vision and web framework, value proposition. Our website http://www.wattminder.com deploys a couple of IPs–mathematical model and live IV-chart; are still unique and not duplicated elsewhere. It helps owners and operators of PV sites detect under-performance–a killer to return-on-investmenrt.
Thanks for your attention, and,
May the Sun always warm your face and your panels!
