Million Solar Roofs Initiative. DOE
will lead an effort to place one
million solar energy systems on U.S. roofs by the year 2010, by using
existing Federal grants, procurement, and other programs, and by working
with local communities, businesses, governments, and utilities to
increase sales of solar energy systems. By 2010, this initiative could
avert carbon dioxide emissions equivalent to those of 850,000 cars and
will produce the same electrical generating capacity as several
coal-fired power plants.
