Rapid Energy Transition by Paying Renewable Energy Up Front
Description
This paper presents a pricing-and-governance schema that accelerates solar deployment by bringing forward revenues to finance immediate capacity growth while guaranteeing lower, stable prices afterward. Consumers commit to a fixed ``average'' monthly energy amount to discourage manipulations and smooth seasonal variation; usage above that level is billed at market rates, and unused allotments accumulate as credits. The model is paired with strict orchestration: capped expansion per investing entity, shareholder-workers with required competencies, limits on liability cash-outs, and a reinvest-first rule supported by a temporary tax holiday during the growth phase. The result is a policy-portable, transparent framework that aligns investor incentives with climate goals, fosters job creation, expands reliable supply, and shields households from inflation and volatility over the contract term.
