Green Leaders Week will kick off with a Bang at the Envirepel Open House on Monday, July 21, where participants get an insider's look into San Diego County's first-of-its-kind, ultra-low emissions Biomass to Energy Plant. Envirepel's Clean Renewable Technology will be showcased during tours through the facility, which is in the final stages of construction.

On Tuesday, July 22, participants will explore the current state of renewable energy and the future of green investment with thought leaders at two panel discussions at Envision Solar International, Inc., a global developer and provider of solar integrated building systems (SIBs™). Sustainable architects, photovoltaic system designers, and other industry experts will discuss the opportunities for energy efficiency in the home, LEED certification and independence from the electrical grid in "Bringing Renewable Energy Home". Utility experts, green academics and investment professionals will exchange ideas about the transition of energy infrastructure to renewable power sources, how the green revolution will impact financial markets, and investment strategies in "Mastering the Energy Revolution".

Accredited Investor

What does it Mean? A term used by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under Regulation D to refer to investors who are financially sophisticated and have a reduced need for the protection provided by certain government filings.

Also known as "qualified purchaser".

Investopedia Says... In order for an individual to qualify as an accredited investor, he or she must accomplish at least one of the following:

1) earn an individual income of more than $200,000 per year, or a joint income of $300,000, in each of the last two years and expect to reasonably maintain the same level of income.

2) have a net worth exceeding $1 million, either individually or jointly with his or her spouse.

3) be a general partner, executive officer, director or a related combination thereof for the issuer of a security being offered.

These investors are considered to be fully functional without all the restrictions of the SEC.
