solar city strongly supports this item that was established solar capacity goal for san francisco rooftops and require all-new construction to offset a portion of the electricity load with clean energy. it makes sense for the city to set an aspirational yet feasible goal consistent with the values of its citizens, the action the board has already taken to assert its leadership on clean energy and the challenge we all face in living and adapting to the risks of climate change. as of last november the solar industry employs [speaker not understood] more than the three investor owned utilities in the state combined. the industry is growing at a rate faster than the statewide ashev and projected to grow 7 times faster than tech and health care sectors. this is a testament to what the industry has done to help san francisco and the state to end its he can no, ma'am i recovery by creating good paying jobs that can't be outsourced and importantly must be hired locally. by adopting this resolution the city can elevate its leadership role on [speaker not understood] unrivaled by other california ci

we are at a residence here where solar city is outfitting this house to transition to solar power. you can see the panel installation has begun. these crews will work for 24 hours to finish the project. one representative told me crews are in operation seven days a week to meet demand for these projects. there is a reason for that because the market for solar in the residential space is growing. analysts are expecting it to reach about $6 billion in the next couple of years. in fact, this house behind me is likely to generate about 83% of its power needs for the year from its solar panels which is pretty significant. also, in terms of costs they will go from paying 20 cents to 13 cents to solar city. they are cutting their costs in half here. the home is still connected to the grid. you have the utilities companies supporting the process. if the home needs more energy or bad weather or a storm they have to connect to the traditional grid. solar city told me it is operating as a utility company even though solar only has less than 1% market penetration right now and looking to expan

this morning, solar city expected to roll out a compromised solution. ey will install solar panels and let you pay them off slowly, month to month. i've said it before, solar city is not a solar company, it's really a finance company. solar city's chairman elon musk, caused a twitter on twitter last week when he promised he would reveal something from tesla tomorrow. speculation it's a model-s with all-wheel drive, many of tesla's competitors, audi, offer all-wheel drive. could be more information about the upcoming models, model x, model 3. it's not a new car entirely. i'll tell you why, coming up tomorrow morning. speaking of cars, drive-throughs have gotten slower. number crunch, they think the fancy, new offering are slowing things down, fancy coffee, new things at taco bells that aren't tacos. the latest issue of quick service and casual restaurant magazine says burger restaurants have the fastest drive-throughs, chicken second, sandwich outlets last. they named subway -- i had no idea subway had drive-through restaurants. that would take forever. >

if we see a sustained move higher in oil i think stocks like solar city and sun power outperform. >> not a lot of people driving around america in a solar powered car. don't we care more about natural gas prices than oil? >> that is a great point. if you look over the past five years the correlation of solar stocks if you look at the index to natural gas is almost 100%, almost perfectly correlated. if you look at it to oil it is more like 20% which is insignificant. over the past year there is higher correlation to oil and solar stocks but the way that you evaluate solar stocks is natural gas. solar power versus natural gas what you pay for your energy from the fossil fuel base source. natural gas is more important. portfolio managers have more focus on oil and it will have an effect. >> just to hold you accountable, let's rewind one year ago here on "street signs" october 25, 2013. and you said about first solar that it is overinflated and you had concerns about the accounting and you said it would end badly and had a price target of $13. it is now $57 and change. are you going to th
