Right now, solar installers can be in cahoots with a solar panel supplier that the board and executive members also own, and is so doing, they jack up the prices of the solar panels for use by their solar installers, so that 30% of the jacked up price already more than pay for the installation. IOW, they can theoretically game the government and fleece out the taxpayers. By having a neutral third party solar exchanges that establishes the average price, it should help prevent the practice of gaming the solar subsidies practiced by installers.

Not only the supplies, they should also market installation services in addition.
