U.S. Bancorp and PV-maker SunPower have started a $100 million venture that can boost green standards on about 3,000 single-family homes nationwide. Independently owned solar-panel installers who have dealer agreements with SunPower will build the rooftop solar systems. The solar panels will be installed on the roofs of homeowners who sign a long-term lease agreement with SunPower, agreeing to buy the electricity through monthly payments.
