Gary GerberLast week I spoke with Ryan Chao, director of Satellite Housing in Berkeley, CA about a new project that featured solar energy. Today, my guest is Gary Gerber, President and Founder of Sun Light and Power, the company that installed the solar array for Satellite Housing.

Gary founded his company in 1976, and he tells the story of what happened to solar power, and how it’s coming to the forefront once again. Gary serves on the board of directors of several non-profit organizations including a non profit solar industry trade association, the California Solar Energy Industries Association (CALSEIA). He is also a mamber of ADPSR (Architects, Designers, Planners for Social Responsibility).
