'The aim of California's current Feed-In Tariff program is to help the state meet its renewable energy mandates without excessively increasing the cost of electricity to consumers,' notes Bill Pham, CEO of Cenergy Power. 'This has been a very difficult balance to strike for solar projects, as there have been very few successfully commissioned solar projects under this program since its commencement in February 2008. With innovative and well-intentioned partners like Greenleaf, however, the sustainable development and construction of small distributed solar power plants can now become a reality in California. We intend to build many more solar power plants of this nature with Greenleaf in the foreseeable future.' "
