一項幫助業主投資于太陽能電池板的試點方案運行第一天大獲成功，令人激動不已。Bob Valdez在Oregon 州公用事業委員會上說，所有的初始點進行立即填補。 Valdez還注意到，在未來4年中，對太陽計劃感興趣的人將有7次以上的機會。該計劃為參加者提供太陽能電力的55至65美分每千瓦小時的設置率。
    參加者可使用聯邦而不是州的稅收抵免太陽能電池板安裝及使用的前期費用。該方案2009年由俄勒岡州的頒布。

    A pilot program offering a profit motive to help homeowners invest in solar panels was a rousing success in its first day of business.
    Bob Valdez at the Oregon Public Utility Commission says all the initial spots were filled immediately.
    Valdez notes that people interested in the solar program will have seven more chances over the next four years.
    The program offers participants a set rate of between 55 and 65 cents a kilowatt hour for solar electricity.
    Participants can use federal, not state, tax credits to help offset the upfront cost of the solar panels. The program was created by a 2009 Oregon law.
