The car loan was invented in the 1920s.
The home loan was invented in the 1940s.
The invention we need for the 2020s is the climate loan.
A mortgage, or credit, is like a time machine; it allows you to afford the future you want, today. #gnd #decarbonize

Great read! I had the following idea about a residential solar funding mechanism shortly after committing to my home’s PV project.

It’s independent of homeowner credit & a revolving fund would open muni bond market to sub-utility scale solar. Thoughts?

If the Australian government wanted to enable such plans they could aim for a flat 2% interest co-payment.

We are in a period of historic low inflation. bonds can be so close to 0%. In some countries negative interest is being provided for some asset classes. The current situation has nothing to do with availability of capital and everything to do with political will.

"The home loan was invented in the 1940s"? easily verifiable, clearly wrong. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_…
