Thank you.
Thank you to all of the witnesses for coming here today and giving your very important testimony to this committee.
My first question is for Mr. Li.
Mr. Li, you spoke extensively about the project you're working on. I believe you said it was in Essex. I'm concerned about whether or not you see any tensions with respect to that project—the one you're building with the eco-friendly, environmental, sustainable homes—and the cost of building these homes. I know you are predicting long-term savings, but right now the market is such that people can't even afford to get into it because they don't have the tens of thousands of dollars handy in their bank accounts to make down payments.
You spoke about some really novel things that are being incorporated into your building structure, such as geothermal heating, electric charge plugs in the front of the house and the use of more renewable energy sources.
Is there any way to still encourage people to invest in these homes, knowing that there may be upfront costs but that they will save on the back end in terms of their electricity bills?
