Short summaries today given that Intersolar is winning the battle. On another note, who will be at Solar Battle of the Bands tonight?
100% Renewables, I’m In. A few years ago I sat on a panel with Tony Seba and we debate, with passion, the virtue of extending the ITC for solar. This time, we didn’t share a stage but we did share an opinion. It may not become rule but it could become inevitable that we enter a 100% renewable environment.
More Tariffs? Are You Kidding Me? Trump readies another round of tariffs, $200billion this time. We don’t know the details yet and SEIA is looking into it but at this point, short of having a different President, we have to go along with this since the legislators are not doing much. Let’s just hope we can end this trade fight soon, rather than later.
Bailout Blackmail. Another nuclear plant is threatening closure. I’d like legislators to say, go ahead and spend the money to close it, then take the site and interconnection and drop a bunch of batteries on the spot and build a ton of DG solar to make up the generation.
