A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Because most of their money isn't liquid they can't actually afford it

If it made financial sense, any bank would give a loan for a project whose generation offset a greater cost than the monthly payment. Assuming decent business history.

The companies that sell these projects likely partner with some financial institutions to offer loans.

So I don’t think this is a liquidity issue.
