Municipal Bonds Fund Sustainable Energy:
The biggest city so far to announce its program is San Diego.

San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders will today roll out one of the most aggressive plans in the nation to help homeowners and small businesses buy solar power systems.

"The city would request bids from financial institutions willing to put up money for the solar loans. The winning bid would determine the program's interest rate – which is about 7 percent in Palm Desert – and its size.

San Diego officials said they have been approached by two financing companies interested in participating. They said it's a sign of the fiscal markets welcoming what they describe as low-risk loans."
