Disruption: Solar Energy – Episode 31 – Pamela Cargill

written by Roger Willhite

Today on the podcast I speak with Pamela Cargill, Principal of Chaolysti. We talk in depth about choosing the right solar job. This includes location, culture and other factors. We also talk a little third party ownership, policy, and I ask for a closer examination of Jigar Shah’s thesis that the only way to solve our climate problems is with mainstream, not impact, investors.
