=====Real Carbon Credit=====
We need to separate the carbon dependent economy from the no carbon dependent economy. To do that we create a euro placeholder, with the value of a euro, but only usable to buy anything but carbon energy.
Anyone that wants to can then buy renewable sources and get carbon credit in Euro, provided he/she sells the energy only in RCCs.
This will also remove cash from the financial system.

"I believe that it is only through the use of an energy standard – rather than a fiat currency or gold - that the transition from carbon-based fuels to renewable energy may be painlessly made, and in so doing, allow the US, and other nations to repay their energy, and other resource debts."

Additions:
An indirect financing systemwould involve interest payments. They would have to be less than the yield. This is easy to achieve if one takes a total runnig time of 15 years ( like with mortgages). So a system would not require much kwh to be sold in advance because the energy is sold in Euro. If the loan where set in Kwh the deal would be less attractive for the owner. Now the investor can speculate on the rising price of electricity and invest.

But let's say people buy kwhs or joules at the present price and use 5 kwh as the currency unit. Then with the money that costs the system finances panels that do generate kwh's. With a payback time of 8 years one would have to have 8 times as much energy money in circulation as one would have energy produced, that is if the thing is not financed but payed.
A direct financing system of 1 KWp = 1000 Wp produces 850 kwh = 170 Euro annually but cotst about 2000 Euro, so payback is in 11.7. years This means 11 times more money needs to circulate to be redeeme ultimately after 11 years.

=====Utility scale energy currency=====
If a utility company where to accept kwh/joules as currency that would imply it could deliver them on demand. The most efficient way to do that would be to generate them as close to the user as possible, even in the house of the user.

=====Kilowatt Card=====
[[https://www3754.ssldomain.com/kilowattcards/template/index.cfm Kilowatt card]] is a well thought trough system of debit cards where the holder can exchange kwh outside the monetary system and redeem them online towards any entity that sells kilowatts. Its weakness is that it does not reserve any kilowatts, so it does not protect agains inflation of electricity prices. This problem can be fixed. One could imagine a joule/kwh card.

===Real Carbon Credits===
Om de transitie te kunnen maken naar de schone economie is een nieuw geldsysteem vereist. Dit systeem is vrijwel identiek aan het huidige systeem, met een verschil, het schermt zich af van fossiele brandstoffen. Dit laatste is essentieel omdat fossiele brandstoffen momenteel de basis zijn van vrijwel alle productiviteit en dus alle kredietverstrekking.
Het nieuwe geldsysteem staat het creeren van krediet toe door producenten van CO2 vrije energie, CO2 reducerende activiteiten etc. Wie iets produceert kan geld creeren en uitgeven aan anderen die iets produceren. Binnenkomend geld verdwijnt.

====Brainstorming====
To pay for the renewable revolution we need money. Money and credit is now supplied by banks. It is collateralized by nothing, it is completely fiat, even though there is a pretence that banks are leveraged. The only thing you have a right to when holding a dollar is another dollar.
Stating from the above facts about money there is no reason why the carbon free society would not create its own currency. The key aspect of money is whethere it is accepted as such, not the value of the note. We should therefore start a chain of pledges to accept a new currency to fund the renewable revolution. This new currency is the real carbon credit.
How to bring this currency into circulation? Who will accept the currency first? The answer is complex when dealing with fiat money. Fiat money must be a means to an end. It must be the only way to purchase renewable energy sources.
What if you invested in a certain source of alternative and you got more bang for your buck? What if you got 1,1 cleandollar for every real dollar you deposited and could then spend that cleandollar only on clean energy sources? Then the clean energy companies could resell that cleandollar into the market.
The trick is to eliminate or slash energy cost, this will make it easy to create the margin of 10%. If a company now pays 1000 a year on energy, but by spending the credits will spend only 200 in maintenance, that difference can pay off the 10% quickly. This is where the credit aspects comes in. Emitters of the cleandollar will have to sign up for real dollar cost over a period of years. If you buy the product using the dollars you are pledging to postpone the savings a little while.
The hardest part is that the producers must accept the dollars. They can because they can change them into real dollars with the clean dollar issuing agency. They can also resell them into the market place. Also clean producers will accept the clean dollar for their products. The clean dollar symbolizes the change to a sustainable and prosperous society.
